Q3. A magician was boasting one day at how long he could hold his breath under water. His record was 6 minutes.

Q7. This is an unusual paragraph. I'm curious how quickly you can find out what is so unusual about it? It looks so plain you would think nothing was wrong with it! In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is unusual though. Study it, and think about it, but you still may not find anything odd. But if you work at it a bit, you might find out! Try to do so without any coaching!

Q1 - Lions' room, if they haven't eaten, they are dead!

3 men pay for a night at a hotel.. the hotel is 30$ so each man pays 10 dollars and goes to their room..

Once in the room the cashier sees that there is a special on the night and the room only costs 25$.. He has the server go up and give them men thier 5 dollars...

Once there the men tip the server 2 dollars so that they each equally get 1$ back..

Now take this scenario and do the math

5 dollars is being given back.. 2 dollars is given to the server as a tip.. Each man gets 1 dollar back which now means each man paid 9$ for the room

9x3 = 27 + 2 (tip) = 29.. where is the missing dollar

Disclaimer.. i have never seen the answer for this so i do not have an answer for you.. So anyone with the right answer will just have to be logically correct i suppose lol...

For yours, Aden, I've seen that one. And the way it's worded is wrong from the original author.

I saw this broken down once and laid out clearly. Basically, the author did his own math wrong is what it came to. hehe
