Logical Riddle For The Smarts by ifeoluwa05(f): 10:45am On Mar 17, 2015

• There are 5 houses that are each a different colour.
• There is a person of a different nationality in each house.
• The 5 owners drink a certain drink. They each smoke a certain brand of cigarettes and also have a certain pet. No owner has the same pet, smokes the same brand of cigarettes nor drinks the same drink.
• The question is. “Who has the fish?”

CLUES

2. The Swedish man has a dog for a pet.
3. The Danish man drinks tea.
4. The green house is to the left of the white house.
5. The owner of the green house drinks coffee.
6. The person that smokes Pall Mall has a bird.

4 bees and 3 flowers. Yes it was simple. I observe dat the bees have even number from the 2nd statement nd I chose the lowest even number I culd think. 2 nd 4. 2bees Obviously seems wrong since one flower was left behind frm 1st statement, so I chose 4bees nd subtracted 1 frm it to give 3 flowers. Am I ryt? Both with the answer nd d explaination?

A poor farmer went to the market to sell rice and beans. However, as he had only one
sack and didn't want to mix rice and beans,
he poured in the rice first, tied the sack in the
middle, and then filled the top portion of the
sack with the beans. At the market a rich
innkeeper happened by with his own sack. He
wanted to buy the rice, but he did not want
the beans
Pouring the grains anywhere else but the sacks
is considered soiling,Trading sacks is not
allowed. The farmer can't cut a hole in his
sack.
How would you transfer the rice to the
innkeeper's sack, which he wants to keep,
without soiling the produce?
