Dollar Trouble
March 25, 2008 at 5:54 am | In Puzzles & Riddles | No CommentsThree people check into a hotel. They pay $30 to the manager and go to their room. The manager finds out that the room rate is $25 and gives $5 to the bellboy to return. On the way to the room the bellboy reasons that $5 would be difficult to share among three people so he pockets $2 and gives $1 to each person. Now each person paid $10 and got back $1. So they paid $9 each, totalling $27. The bellboy has $2, totalling $29. Where is the remaining dollar?

Solution:
Each person paid $9, totalling $27. The manager has $25 and the bellboy $2. The bellboy’s $2 should be added to the manager’s $25 or subtracted from the tenants’ $27, not added to the tenants’ $27.

Answer: She was hoping that the guy would appear at the funeral again.
If you answered this correctly, you think like a psychopath.
This was a test by a famous American psychologist used to test if one has the same mentality as a killer. Many arrested serial killers took part in this test and answered it correctly. If you didn’t answer correctly -good for you.
If your friends hit the jackpot, may I suggest that you keep your distance.

Intelligence Test
March 25, 2008 at 5:51 am | In Puzzles & Riddles | No CommentsTry this only once and be honest… This is not a joke, but a true test. Read the following sentence: FINISHED FILES ARE THE RESULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIF- IC STUDY COMBINED WITH THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS.
Now read through the above sentence counting aloud the “F”s as you find them (1…2…etc). Count them ONLY ONCE: Do not go back and count them again!!!.
OK - GO!
See below for answers …

ANSWER:
There are six F’s in the sentence. One of average intelligence finds three of them. If you spotted four, you’re above average. If you got five, you can turn your nose at most anybody. If you caught six, you are a genius. There is no catch. Many people forget the “OF”’s. The human brain tends to see them as V’s and not F’s. Pretty weird, huh?

How many diamonds?
March 25, 2008 at 5:48 am | In Puzzles & Riddles | No CommentsThere was a diamond broker who had 7 sons. Few months before his death he told his eldest son that he has hidden few diamonds somewhere and that when he dies he (the eldest son) should divide all the diamonds equally between 7 brothers. Few weeks later the father dies and the son gets the diamond and tells his younger brother that how they can have the diamonds equally between two of them with out telling others. When they divide the diamonds equally between themselves they are left with one diamond so they decide to include 3rd brother and divide the diamonds equally between them but again one diamonds is left. They bring the fourth brother but still one diamond is left so the fifth one comes in and then the sixth one but still one diamond is remaining. When they bring the seventh brother in the diamonds are equally divided. The question is, how many diamonds are there, and how one diamond was left in every division (each time diamonds were shared between 6 brothers until they brought the seventh brother in). Diamonds are not allowed to be broken in two pieces.
