naturalwaves: Lmao. Don't worry now,that doesn't change anything.Try these ones.D 2nd one is very tough.One will spend at least 1hour on it.

I'm glad I didn't give it a try.

Valiantvaliant: ^^^
Nope, why do ppl like taking the offensive side of a comment

and why do people like you misinterprete comments You are too much a joker not to have recognized the humor in my comment

Valiantvaliant: Please, stop trying to be a perfectsionist

Have you got a problem with that?

I won't bother attempting any of the riddles..the shame of getting 2/5 on naturalwaves' is enough

@ murtalaa and justwise,thanks for the elucidation.

I still don't understand what this is all about.I read it on yahoo news yesterday and couldn't make a head or tail of the news.I still can't.
For one thing,when did universities start issuing visas?..that's the duty of embassies.On a second note, what has sponsorship got to do with all of this?

I just need someone to clarify these things.Thanks in advance.

we don't know jor..come out with the answers

no

I'm with naturalwaves on it..this just goes on to confirm my observation.Dlex21 is one wicked guy..he framed the question to pose confusion..You must not be an examiner o.lol.

Thanks for activating our brain cells though..It seems you and naturawaves belong to the same league

^^ Your method is even shorter,welldone too.The question is indeed ambiguous.I've attempted the fourt,nothing is forthcoming.

naturalwaves: Tinkybabe,The Maths Aficionado!

You!!!!!

dlex21: @tinky...this is specially 4 u

1) 10, 30, 32, 96, 98, 294, 296, ?, ?...What two numbers should replace the question marks??

2) IK has four times as many as CHUKS, and CHUKS has three times as many as GODS-CHILD. Altogether they have 192. How many has each??

3) How many minutes is it before 12 noon if nine minutes ago it was twice as many minutes past 10 am??

4) Find five consecutive numbers in the series that total 22: 7 3 9 6 4 1 3 7 9 3 5 4 1 7 6 5....

5) What is the longest word in the English language that can be produced from the following set of letters?? Letters may only be used once in the word produced...FEUMOPXCTW...

dlex21!!! you are wicked o..I never claimed to be a maths guru now..

1)296 x 3=888
888+ 2 =890
...888,890

2)IK has 12 times as many as GC
if GC has b
Chuks has 3b and IK 12b
b+3b+12b= 192
16b= 192
b=192/16 =12

IK=12x12 =144
Chuks =3x12=36
GC= 12

3)It's best to change the hr time to mins
these are all the figures given
so 12 x60=720mins
and 10x60= 600mins
then 9mins

nine mins ago from present time is twice the no of mins past ten
since we do not know what the current time is ..we can work our equation or ans to 9 mins to 12.In essence we are looking at how many mins it is to 9mins to 12(11.51am)assuming the current time is twice the no of mins past ten.

so;
10 past the unknown mins =12 to (2 x unknown) mins -9
In equation,let unknown mins be 'm' and change all hrs to mins

600+m =720-2m-9
600+m =720-9-2m
600+m =711-2m(take like terms)
m+2m =711-600
3m =111
m=111/3 =37

therefore 9 mins ago the time was 'twice 37mins' past 10
which is 11.14
and current time is 11.14+9mins =11.23am
no mins to 12 is 37

I don tire abeg..will attempt the fourth question later ..as for 5,I think naturalwaves's got the answer.

refer to my signature @op

ogugua88: They'll be lucky if any of their boyfriends marry any of them. Too many shameless creatures on this earth.

As they were talking about how smart they are, their faces became immortalized on youtube and the rest of the internet. Who be mumu? I taya lol.

Their boyfriends?they'd be lucky to find a man to marry them.sheer stupidity!displayed with so much pride and boldness .

^^epic!there you have it op..that should hurt less and I'm sure she would respect you for this(refer to MBJ's post)

Naturalwaves,the riddler!

tunapawizzy: eyah i feel for u o......but u sef turn suitor now

will you marry me?

naturalwaves: How can this be done without any of them being exposed to the blood of any of the others?

If this is not a typographical error,my answer is:
'Anyhow' since none of the surgeons got injured,hence no blood exposed.

naturalwaves: Am sowei.Okay,end of maths teaser on this thread.Let's move to d riddles section.Shall we? Maybe I should create another thread for brain and maths teasers cos they are still a lil bit different from riddles.Where av u been tinkybabe?

It's okay, afterall I'm just as guilty..lol.I've been busy

sezie: I got a Kingfish in Danemark eatin a Hackberry. Woh does dat make mi?

walexydon: Two women and two doctors walk into an ice cream parlor. They each order an ice cream cone. When their ice creams come, there is only 1 strawberry,1 chocolate and 1 vanilla.
How come they didn't complain?

Three fat ladies stood under an umbrella but none of them got wet. Why didn't any of them get wet?

Which word, if pronounced right, is wrong, but if pronounced wrong is right?

Which word is the odd one out:
First Second Third Forth Fifth Sixth Seventh Eighth

1)There are 3 individuals...one woman,a female doctor and a male doctor(the female doctor doubles as a female and a doctor)

2)It was not raining

3)the word is 'wrong'.
You pronounce it right as 'wrong' and you pronounce it 'wrong',it's the right pronunciation

4)forth.( spelt 'fourth' correctly )

musKeeto: i commot cap for tinkybabes

Thanks..it was quite challenging tho.

naturalwaves: Bravo! U got it cos with ur method,one would definately be able to tell.Thumbs up. Keep it up!

thanks (dancing azonto)my headache was worth it afterall..I've not been able to crack the 88881 bit..I've used virtually all the mathematical symbols/formula I know...pls narrow it down to a list of symbols or give a clue.The question is too wide

miss dee: Thought of a kaola in denmark eating an apple
nice!bet that wasn't the first thing that came to your mind.I'm almost positive you had a change of mind when you saw the last post

Nice!

Shollypopz: I so fell for d trick...i always thought i was unique

Apparently not in this case..but you're still unique tho

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)
