She weighs sugar.. that was easy :-)

Okay.Correct!...Paste ur own riddles too.

Here is another one;
Outside a room there are three light switches. Only one of the 3 switches is connected to a light bulb inside the room.
Each of the three switches can be either 'ON' or 'OFF'.

You are allowed to set each switch the way you want it and then enter the room(note: you can enter the room only once)

Your task is to then determine which switch controls the bulb ??

Switch all 3 on

Tinkybabe:

Switch all 3 on

Lol,wen u get to d room and then sees the bulb on,ow will u be able to say wich of d 3 switches switched on d bulb? Try again.

dlex21: Show workings

ok o..working
let the 5 digits be a,b,c,d,e
Going by this info

dlex21: A guy 4got his 5 digit password...but has d following details
1. The first digit ȋ̝̊̅ڪ the square of the 2nd
2. The sum of the 2nd and 3rd digits is 10
3. the 4th digit ȋ̝̊̅ڪ the 2nd digit plus 1
4. The sum of the 5th and 3rd digit is 14
5. And finally, the sum of all the digits is 30

a=b²(square of b)
c=10-b(if b+c=10)
d=b+1
e=14-(10-b)----->(from c=10-b)
;e=14-10+b(if you multiply through be -)
e=4+b


Since a+b+c+d+e=30
therefore using the simplification above

b²+b+(10-b)+(b+1)+(4+b)=30

b²+b+10-b+b+1+4+b=30

b²+2b+10+1+4=30
b²+2b+15=30

b²+2b=30-15
b²+2b=15

b²+2b-15=0(quadratic equation)

(b-3)(b+5)=0

b=3 0r -5...we're dealing with +ve nos so -5 is ruled out so b=3

with that knowledge put b=3 back in the info

a=3²=9
b=3
c is 10-3=7
d is 3+1=4
e is 4+3=7
digits are 9,3,7,4,7


hope this is not your assignment o

gerraway jor iono then

U get it correctly,u get a card.so ,try.

what type of card?

Rchd. Card.If U get it in not more than 3hrs from now.

The question is easy to solve without even carrying a pen but ur calculation is quite impressive for a lady.Keep it up!

this one hard o.. i hope its not a trick question... eg from outside the room, wont u be able to tell what switch controls the bulb without going into the room?

naturalwaves: Rchd. Card.If U get it in not more than 3hrs from now.

Switch one is connected to the light bulb

Tinkybabe:
Switch one is connected to the light bulb

It could be anyone of them.I just want u to tell me ow u can determine which one.

musKeeto:

U can do whatever u like with d switches outside d room,u can put them anyhow u want,after that,u will go inside.on getting inside,u can observe d bulb or do anything of ur choice.ow will u tell which switch works for d bulb if u are asked?

naturalwaves:
The question is easy to solve without even carrying a pen but ur calculation is quite impressive for a lady.Keep it up!

What's that supposed to mean Anyway,I'm a maths teacher and expected to explain in steps when teaching.I'm kinda used to it

naturalwaves:

Well,I thot it's a riddle and most riddles have their answers in the question so

naturalwaves: Here is another one;
Outside a room there are three light switches. Only [b]one [/b]of the 3 switches is connected to a light bulb inside the room.

I figured there lies the answer.

Tinkybabe:

Lol.I knew U were goint to say that(what's that supppsed to mean).It is just that it is nice to find a lady with something to offer on a social platform like this wen compared to a bulk of others.Very impressive.I like maths too and even av 2 new laws that's never been existing.Maybe we could share and solve some real tough questions someday....keep on trying d riddle.just try.

Tinkybabe:

This one is more of a brain teaser,it requires a lil bit of thinking before u can decipher it and d ans is not within d question....u just need to find a way to tell/determine d correct bulb if u were in dat situation.

*CLUE....wen u get into d room,u can observe d bulb.

@tinkybabe...from U̶̲̥̅̊я calculation...¶ J̶̲̥̅̊u̶̲̥̅̊ƨ̣̣̣̇̇̇̇τ̣̣̥ knew U̶̲̥̅̊‎​ were a maths teacher...nice
@natualwaves..which oda way can U̶̲̥̅̊‎​ calculate it o

Since U̶̲̥̅̊‎​ can observe the bulb...there must be a wired that can be traced 2 one of the switches

After much pondering,I came up with this
Lets assume the switches are 1,2,3
leave 2 switches ;2 and 3 'on' and 1 'off' for about a min.
Switch 2 'off' ,leaving only 3 'on' and go into the room.if the bulb lights up,then 3 is the controller, if not..feel the bulb,if it's warm then it's 2 ...if it's cold then it's 1.

Tell me I'm right.(swallows 2paracetamol tablets)
