2 men.

A half a minute and a half is 45 seconds. 45s goes into 30min 40 times. That means that you have 40 units of cake eating time. You eat 1.5 cakes each unit so that's 60 cakes in the allowed time, by only 1.5men. But you can't get 1.5men, unless you chop a man in half, and being chopped in half spoils your appetite, so 2 men.

Sorry about the doublepost but I had a few reasonable answers for the 1st one as soon as I posted.



An egg hitting the ground won't break the ground. Just the egg.

OR

You drop the egg while it's still inside the chicken.

OR

You said no other 'objects'. You could drop the egg half a foot into someone's hands, then they could drop it to you, and so on until you hit the ground.

OR

You could be dropping it into water at ground lv. It wouldn't be use of an object if you were dropping it into the ocean.

OR

You could varnish the egg. It would still be raw, but much harder.

Either it was a girls' baseball team or boys, not men.

One of them is a Woman

4) The child was the son of foreign citizens on vacation, who were also born on vacation in Boston. The from-birth rule does not count for children to parents who are not permanent residents (permanent residents count no matter their legal status, but ambassadors and temporary visitors do not count).

I apologize but I mistyped #7 it should be in a minute and a half not half a minute and a half. Unholy Sasuke gets 5, Verner got 2, and Kewne gets 6.

(1) I work as a magician as a part time job. One of my best tricks is to drop a raw egg 3 feet to the ground without it breaking. Without the aid of any other object how do I do it?

(2) My father was bragging about his old baseball team. He said "Three of our players hit home runs and two of those home runs were hit with the bases loaded. Our guys won 9 to 0 and not a single man crossed home plate." How is this possible?


(3) A child was born in Boston Massachusetts to parents who were born in Boston Massachusetts yet this child is not an American Citizen, how?


(4) If a man and a half can eat a cake and a half in a half a minute and a half, allowing the same situation, how many men would it take to eat 60 cakes in 30 minutes?

(5) A horse travels a certain distance each day. The strange thing is two of the horses four legs travel 31 kilometers while the other two travel only 30 kilometers, given there is nothing abnormal about the horse how is this possible?

(6) How long will it take to cut a wooden log into ten equal pieces if each piece takes one minute to cut?

(7) How many jellybeans can you put in an empty jar?

2) Every man on the team was married.

6) 9. You only need to make 9 cuts, since the last cut will produce both the 9th and 10th pieces.

(5)This sounds weird X_x but the distance is lesser due to the distance between the front two legs and the rear two legs.
(7) As many as you can fill up the jar.

4) 3 men

7) It depends on the size of the jar

(7) How many jellybeans can you put in an empty jar?

ONE, then it isn't empty anymore.

(2) My father was bragging about his old baseball team. He said "Three of our players hit home runs and two of those home runs were hit with the bases loaded. Our guys won 9 to 0 and not a single man crossed home plate." How is this possible?
Well in baseball when you hit a home run you don't have to run all the bases the hitter just has to touch first.

(3) A child was born in Boston Massachusetts to parents who were born in Boston Massachusetts yet this child is not an American Citizen, how?
His parents could of gave up citizenship because they were going to live in a different place.
Just a guess

Beaudoin gets 2 and 6, Kewne gets 7. Remember I need explanations for the answer to be correct not just one word Groove

(6) How could you rearrange the letters in the words new door to make one word?

Damn your eyes, I explained when you typoed =P

Right! Third time lucky...

3 men. Take 30minutes and divide it by 1.5min. That gives you 20 quantities of the needed timespan. Then multiply 20 by 1.5 again for the 1.5 cakes every 1.5min. That puts you back up to 30 cakes in 30 minutes. Then 1.5men can eat 30 in 30min, so 3 men will eat 60 in 30min.



Well you take 'new door' and dissemble it into letters - denooprw

Then you take 'one word' and dissemble it also, you again get the letters - denooprw

Just prooving that 'new door' and 'one word' can be quite happily made out of each other.

(5) I had parked my car underneath a tree not realizing the giant vicious dog that was tied to the tree. It chased me away from my car until it's chain did not go any further. The dog followed my every move and could stop me from getting into any of the doors. How could I get back into my car?


As it follows your every move you simply goes around the tree in circles until the dog has to little rope to get you.

1) I work as a magician as a part time job. One of my best tricks is to drop a raw egg 3 feet to the ground without it breaking. Without the aid of any other object how do I do it?

Isn't an ostrich egg to hard to break from that distance? Or maybe a dinosaur egg(fossil?).

EDIT I don't know if it counts as cheating, but I asked a friend and he said it was easy. His answer was to drop it from a higher point, at least 4 feet. Then the egg will drop 3 feet without breaking but then break after the fourth feet.

One thousand?

(2)If a man and a half can eat a cake and a half in a half a minute and a half, allowing the same situation, how many men would it take to eat 60 cakes in 30 minutes?

Simple, it’s a play on words. 1 ½ man eats 1 ½ cakes in 1 ½ minutes, therefore 1 man can eat 1 cake in 1 minute. With that, 60 men can eat 60 cakes in 60 minutes. If you cut the time in half, you will need to double up the amount of men it takes to eat the cakes…

My Answer:

Therefore it will take 120 men to eat 60 cakes in 30 minutes

~Dommy

wait...I need to change my answer. I just re-read that...

New Answer to question #2:

QUOTE

(2) If a man and a half can eat a cake and a half in a half a minute and a half, allowing the same situation, how many men would it take to eat 60 cakes in 30 minutes?

1.5 man…..1.5cakes….45seconds (1/2 of 90 seconds or a minute and a half)

First we will need to get it evened to a whole man, so I multiplied everything by 2/3’rds

1man…1cake…30seconds

Multiplied everything by 2 to come up with an even minute

2men…2cakes…1minute

Multiplied everything by 30 to come up with the correct number of cakes and minutes:

60men…60cakes…30minutes

So my answer is now 60men

~Dommy

The right two legs take a bigger step than the two left legs, or that the left two legs take a bigger step than the right two legs. As either of the two legs walk forward first in order to make a movement and the other two legs follow in order to move the whole body. (just taking a shot)



101 = One Hundred And One

6) 1. Move one of the O's to the beginning of "New" Result: Onew dor.
2. Move the W to the beginning of dor. Result: One Wdor.
3. take the D out of Wdor and put it at the end. Result: One Word.

There, "New Door" becomes "One Word."

the child was born before the formation of the united states. if the nation was still not seperated from the british the child cannot be an american citizen as america did not technically exsist yet.

Well if we're talking just a child right? Then that child can be a child of anything... meaning would that child be an animal or basically a pet being born in that country (Boston Massachusetts) but since it being not an american citizen it must have it's own different background or that it doesn't have an personal ID...

took ages to think of this but anyhoo's just a guess.. =/

You are driving in reverse.



The letter "m."

There's only one space between the wheels. The back wheel, the front wheel, and
the space inbetween.



Your grandfather was on foot. No laws against that...

I'm sorry, it should be wheel not wheels. It is actually talking about the spokes, other than that 3, 4 and 6 are correct.

49. Pairs = multiply by two.



2? It never said eyes total, and all facesd have two eyes, even if you can't see them.

6) 3. Drawing two could get you one of each color, but by drawing a third it will be either red or blue, and therefore match one of the socks drawn earlier.

7) 12. Two of the jacks have two eyes, so that's 4. Two of the jacks have one eye, so that's 2, add that to 4 and you have six. Double the result, since face cards are more-or-less symmetrical, and you get 12 eyes total.

Oops on 6. Thought it was different.

6) You would need 25. In the unlikely event that you pull all 24 blue socks out, your 25th is guaranteed to be a red sock.

(2) Mercury?

(5) Should be 10.

(2) What substance weighs more as a liqued than a solid?

Water? Since it expands when it freezes, making it less dense and possibly less heavy?...lol...

(5) If a third of six is three, what would half of twenty be?

Off the wall guess...but 2?


(6) In my closet I have a box of socks. There are 24 pairs of red socks and 24 pairs of blue socks. Since my closet is completely dark how many socks do I need to take out to be positive I have two socks of different colors?

You would need to pull 49 socks! Since there are 24 pairs of each there are 48 socks of each color. So choosing 49, if somehow you choose every single blue sock, then you would have one red sock. =D

64. As 64 spokes, and if they were in a line it would be only 63 spokes, like only 2 spaces between 3 things here:

I I I

However the spokes are in a circle, so the extra gap is between the 64th and 1st spokes.



The future. The key points being that it's not here and never has been, and that it's always approaching. The future becomes the present when it arrives.

(1) A horse travels a certain distance each day. The strange thing is two of the horses four legs travel 31 kilometers while the other two travel only 30 kilometers, given there is nothing abnormal about the horse how is this possible?

It's going in a circle. The two inner legs goes a shorter distance than the outer legs.

10.

I have a feeling this is harder than it sounds, but I'll guess 2.

(1) 1/2
(6) 60?

61.

there are 60 minutes in 1 hour, so there should be 60. Count it the first one he shot at exactly 12, should 61.



11 times.

1st = 9
2nd = 19
3rd = 29
4th = 39
5th = 49
6th = 59
7th = 69
8th = 79
9th = 89
10th AND 11th = 99 (there are 2 nine in this number...)

um, 37 inches? ^^;;

Half of your parents are boys. Because your dad is one!



20 times.

You put 9 nine times for 9-89, and then go through all fo the 90s. There are technically 10 numbers there which start with nine, but 99 has an additional nine. 9+10+1=20

(1) If a third of six is three, what would half of twenty be?

20?

(7) My favorite number is 9. I was recently hired to paint the numbers 1 to 100 on offices that just opened down the street. How many times did I paint my favorite number?

Once..., one time. His favorite number is 9. Not 19, 29, etc...So it may of had the digit 9, but not his favorite number.

I apologize for my absence but my connection has been rather iffy as of late.

OKay, well since the volume of the first hole is 2*2*2, it is 8 cubic meters. Now, a hole 4*4*4 would be 64 cubic meters.

64/8=8. Therefore, 8 hours.

(7) I have two coins in my hand they total 35 cents, but one of the coins is not a dime. What are the two coins?

A quarter and a dime. One of the coins is not a dime, it doesn't say that neither of them are a dime. So the one that is 'not a dime' is a quarter, leaving the other as a dime.

Very good, both are correct.
