Small Brainteaser - Three friends check into a motel for the night and the clerk tells them the bill is $30, payable in advance. So, they each pay the clerk $10 and go to their room. A few minutes later, the clerk realizes he has made an error and overcharged the trio by $5. He asks the bellhop to return $5 to the 3 friends who had just checked in. The bellhop sees this as an opportunity to make $2 as he reasons that the three friends would have a tough time dividing $5 evenly among them; so he decides to tell them that the clerk made a mistake of only $3, giving a dollar back to each of the friends. He pockets the leftover $2 and goes home for the day! Now, each of the three friends gets a dollar back, thus they each paid $9 for the room which is a total of $27 for the night. We know the bellhop pocketed $2 and adding that to the $27, you get $29, not $30 which was originally spent. Where did the other dollar go????

Samuel was out for a walk when it started to rain. He did not have an umbrella and he wasn't wearing a hat or a hood. His clothes were soaked, yet not a single hair on his head got wet. How could this happen?

There is an ancient invention still used in some parts of the world today that allows people to see through walls. What is it?

This.


Those 2 will make you think oh shit that was easy when you get the answer.

If a propped airplane is attempting to take off from a conveyor belt built to exactly match the speed of the plane's wheels, in the opposite direction, will the plane be able to take off?

Yes.
Not going to explain its all about air movement under the wing etc etc

You and squirt were almost right.

1. There are 30 people in an empty, square room. Each person has full sight of the entire room and everyone in it without turning his head or body, or moving in any way (other than the eyes). Where can you place an apple so that all but one person can see it?

2. An old man wanted to leave all of his money to one of his three sons, but he didn't know which one he should give it to. He gave each of them a few coins and told them to buy something that would be able to fill their living room. The first man bought straw, but there was not enough to fill the room. The second bought some sticks, but they still did not fill the room. The third man bought two things that filled the room, so he obtained his father's fortune. What were the two things that the man bought?

3. Take the number 45, divide it by 1/3, and then add 30.
What do you get?

1. on head
2. bird + perch = chirping filed the room? torch + gas = smoke filled the room?
3. 165

@giant ass riddle from V
I'm thinking (left eye) 1, (down one) 4, (bottom of mouth) 8, (corner of mouth) 6, (cheek?) 7, (other cheek?) 9?

Any other unanswered? Wanna clear this thread up if it's gonna keep going.

1.What row of numbers comes next in this series?

2. A large truck is crossing a bridge 1 mile long. The bridge can only hold 14000 lbs, which is the exact weight of the truck. The truck makes it half way across the bridge and stops. A bird lands on the truck. Does the bridge collapse? Give a reason

Bump
trick question

1.)There are 4 people in a room, and you have a basket of 4 apples. How do you give each person an apple while still keeping one apple in the basket?
you give 3 to other people, one left you keep it for you, in the basket?

2.)You have a candle, an oil lamp, wood in a fireplace, and only one match.
What do you light first?
the match maybe

3.)Which is faster, hot or cold?
hot

Simply 3 brainteasers.

give the 4th the basket along with the apple in it
