The *NEW* Questions Of The Profound Type
One of the threads I miss the most from the old forums was the riddle/puzzle thread. I liked this game because it wasn't just a silly +1 post count, but yet still challenged the mind. I will go a head and start. Please wait to post a new riddle or puzzle until the previous one has been correctly answered.
I'm found in most countries, yet not in earth or sea,
I am in all timber and yet not in any tree,
I am in all metals, yet I am told,
I am not in lead, iron, brass, silver or gold,
I am not in England, yet this I can say,
I'm to be found in Westminster every day.

Bill can solve 32 math riddles per hour, and his friend Sam takes three hours to solve the same number. If they both work on them, how long will it take for them to solve 32 math riddles?

Re: The *NEW* Questions Of The Profound Type
I'll tell ya what, it would take Sam and Bill 1.4 minutes to figure out the answer to your math question regarding Sam and Bill, since they're so good at math questions.Shay wrote:Bill can solve 32 math riddles per hour, and his friend Sam takes three hours to solve the same number.

Then when they get their math homework finished in 45 minutes due to teamwork, they can use the rest of the time to play in their playground. Bill can use the swing, but Sam will have to stay away, he's a little slow, and last time he went to the playground he fell off the monkey bars.

I'm too lazy to think this one through, but I'm assuming it has something to do with the international date line.

He had is 21st birthday somewhere in the last two days. That must have been on December 30th or 31st. It's now January 1st.
His next birthday will be this calendar year, his 22nd. So next calendar year he will turn 23.
