How about this one: there are two glasses with the same amout of liquid in them. One has vodka, the other one tomato juice. Take a spoon full of vodka out of the vodka glass and put it in the tomato juice glass. Mix it really good. Now take a spoon of this mixture and pour it back into the vodka glass. The glasses again have the same amount of liquid. Is there more vodka in tomato juice or more tomato juice in vodka?

I'm impressed!!

Here's one that I thought was easy but it seems to stump a lot of people.

What does a rich man want, a poor man have and is more evil than the devil?

A mind that is stretched by a new experience can never go back to it's old dimensions.

fine, i'll give an explanation . . .

the portions are unequal. when you mix the tomato juice + vodka into the pure vodka, the pure vodka has less in proportion, 1 tablespoon. so you're adding a the same amount, although diluted, to a smaller portion . . .

i don't have an answer about the rich guy yet . . .

You are adding to a smaller portion, but don't forget that you bring back less tomato juice. You actually bring some vodka with you too. It's not that simple wink.gif

As far as the rich/poor/evil thing goes... I'm not really sure, but probably there's NOTHING more evil than the devil, and you could say that rich man wants NOTHING and poor man has NOTHING (I don't really agree with the idea, but you see where I'm going...)

Riddle Me This, Riddle Me That..

Dont know about the rich guy either but here's another brainteaser...

There are three lamps in a room- the room has only one door and NO OTHER openings. Outside the room are three switches. If you can only enter the room ONCE (no you cannot break down a wall to peak in) how do you determine which switch belongs to which lamp?

When you are outside of the room, can you tell if the room is completely dark or there's some light on in there?

This was a good one, took me a while to get it. Turn two switches on. Wait for some time. Then turn one of them off. So you have one switch on and two off. Now enter the room. The lamp that's on matches with the switch that's on. Now touch the lamps, the one that you turned on and off will be warm, and the cold one is the one you never turned on. Works?

Anyone knows other logic puzzles? I've got interviews coming up on Thu. and Fri. and need to exercise a bit. I know this is not the right board for this shit (I'm looking on other sites too), but some of the problems on this thread were pretty good.

You are in a corridor, there is a door at either end with a man in front.

One door leads to certain death, the other to Creamfields and free drugs. One of the men will always lie one will always tell the truth, you don't know which is which.

You may only ask one question, what will it be?

Easy ask em what day of the week it is =)

Here's one:

2 men play 5 games of chess.

Each man wins the same number of games.

There are no ties.

How is this possible?

they're not playing each other

Here's another:

A man is running from the cops with 2 5lbs Hash balls in his hands. He comes to a bridge that has only a 158lbs capcity. The man weighs 150 lbs. Since he's being chased by 200lb pigs, as soon as he gets across, he's safe. How does this cool dude get both hash balls across the bridge in ONE trip so that he can live to smoke another day? (He cannot roll them across).

Does he take of his shoes?

HINT: I find the answer to possibly violate the laws of momentum...

BTW, The last 3 were lame; anyone with a math or logic bkgrnd could get them. Bring it on....

reason? Average must be 30. Need to cover the first half 15 mph faster. 30 + 15 = 45. Oversimplified, yes.

JDogg

It is 45... but it's 45 because 15mph and 45mph are 60mph... ie: the average of 15 plus 45 is 30 =)

Flip a switch before you go inside.
