    Official Riddles Thread (OP)




    i hope every one will enjoy these riddles
    They are not really mine but some of them are
    i got looooads so i thought i will start a thread of riddles.
    Now lets see...........where shall i start.........4 12 5 1 - Official Riddles Thread
    15 4 102 1 - Official Riddles Thread
    lets start with one of my riddles.......
    Once me and my dad was on our way to school in Kuwait.
    He asked me that........

    I have some apples in my right hand and some in the left hand. Now, if I minus an apple from my left hand and add it to my right hand, then both of my hands has equal no. of apples. And if I minus an apple from my right hand and add it to my left hand, then my left hand contains double the no. of apples as in my right hand.
    How many apples do I have in each of the hands?

    i was verrrrry confused. i went to school and asked my friends but none of them knew the answer. i asked everyone i knew but none of them could get it.
    but then i came home and asked him for the answer and he told me.........Well i was very small at that time anyway

    So give this riddle some tries and i will be back with another brainteasing one insha'allah. But my first 21 riddles are going to be on Maths .

    two outcomes to this that i can think of:
    1)3 oranges take away two = you still have 3 oranges as you didnt specify what 'two' you took away
    2) 1 orange left in the event of you meaning that you did take 2 oranges away.

    having said that there maybe another outcome as you did not specify what you will have left

    here comes the nxt riddle......

    After teaching his class all about roman numerals (X = 10, IX=9 and so on) the teacher asked his class to draw a single continuous line and turn IX into 6. The only stipulation the teacher made was that the pen could not be lifted from the paper until the line was complete.

    Sorry I missed that. I won't do it again, besides, I have some riddles I will also share insha'Allah.

    Sr. Tagrid, maybe it would be a good idea to wait until all previous riddles are so,ved before moving to the next one.

    Might aswell have a go It could be that you have 5 apples at home, you take away 3 apples from the shop, therefore you now have a total of 8?

    If you have five
    apples and take away (subtract) two, you are left with three: 5 - 2 =
    3.

    Re: Tagrid's riddles thread!

    Ok sorry its my fault for confusing you....

    See she said She has 5 apples and she took away ( remeber when we were in 2nd grade we learned about take away) 2 ok so it beacomes "-" ok so so far we have

    5 apples take away 2 and she asked how many does she have?

    so if we write it as a math problem it would be

    5-2=3
    so the answer is 3 apples...

    I have five apples, I take away 3. How many apples do I have left?
    3awashey read the question again...she took away 3 not 2....
    and about your name...Aawashey??? okay its nice name....


    if i try to explain my answer which is 3...i'd say...Taqriid has five apples, and all of sudden she took away three...soo now she only has three...as simple as that...waiting for the right answer from Taqriid insha Allah
