Correct

 

Riddle #1
A farmer puts six pigs in four pens.
No pen is empty.
No pen contains an odd number of pigs.

Question: How does he manage to do that? You may reply with a picture.

Riddle #2
A young boy measuring 1 meter lived with his parents on the tenth floor of a building.
When he went to school in the morning, he used the elevator down ten floors.
Returning from school, he took the elevator to the fifth floor.
Then he came out of the elevator and used the stairs to climb up to the tenth floor.

Question : Why does he not use the elevator to the tenth floor?

Riddle #3

Three men rent a motel room. Each person pays ten dollars.
Later, the cashier discovered that the total bill should only betwenty-five dollars.
He calls the clerk and gives him five dollars and asks him to give that amount to the men who had rented the room.
The dishonest clerk keeps two dollars. He gives a dollar to each of the men.
So they would have paid nine dollars each for the room.
If 3 men paid $ 9.00 each to rent a room ($ 9.00 x 3 = $ 27.00), and the clerk keeps $ 2.00

Question : Where is the missing dollar? ($ 27.00 + $ 2.00 = $ 29.00)

 

haha no, just took a forum break.

 

The 2 should be subtracted like the 3 dollars were subtracted from the total 30. It's like saying, you have five apples... take away 3, now you have 2, now add that 2... now you have 4, HOLY CRAAPP WHAT HAPPENED lol.

 

Yup, that's it.

This is simply a mathematical error.
We can not add 2 to 27, it's more like this:
Cost of room 25
Money back 3
Money kept by the clerk 2
Total 30
Which is the money spent by the 3 men, or 3 X 9 + (5-2) = 30

 

I spent the missing dollar sorry I bought gummy bears lol

 

Riddle #1 The farmer is standing in the 4th pen. With the other 3 pens having 2 pigs in each.

Riddle #2 The dude was skipping school and didn't wanna be caught by no peeps. or there was two lifts and the one that did floors 5-10 was broken but the ones that did 1-5 was working. Idk

 

Wrong for both

 

Nope, steam goes up, but rain doesn't go up because it's too heavy

 

Well done!!

The 2nd one is quite easy but subjective

 

It's still the chemical composition of H2O

I love how they're wrong but they're also technically right

but lemme think some more on it

e; You said lived, he may not live at the same place.

 

the elevator only goes up to floor 5, but goes down to b5, where he gets off. That's the only logical conclusion I thought of so far.

 

Okay the second riddle is pretty dumb, so I'm going to reveal it.

The dude is 1m tall, he can reach the button for the first floor while going down, but he's too short for the 10th floor button.

 

you mother lover.
