That's right, Grimar, but you were beaten to it. Well done, anyway.

Pick another number if you want a new one.

[QUOTE=Yshania]hands?

I have one for you:

An old beggar collects cigarette ends from ashtrays and pavements and uses the tobacco to roll her own cigarettes. She has this practice down to a fine art, knowing that seven cigarette ends will make one rolled cigarette. Since she has collected 49 ends, how many cigarettes can she make from these?[/QUOTE]

um.. 49 : 7 = 7.....

if you are right now Rav, i'm leaving this thread

313

[QUOTE=Grimar]well, you have to "use" them all, so something like hands?

DAMMIT!!!! now i finnaly get one, and Ysh beats me to it

[/QUOTE]

You got there!

It was actually the term wringing of hands that told me that answer.

Ravager, that's ok, I can throw some puzzles back your way if you like

Not 7, no.

You are in a boat in the middle of a river. You have 2 cigarettes and have to light any one cigarette. You don't have anything else with you in the boat. How will you do it?

love this one

penguin_king · Post by **penguin_king** » Sat Aug 06, 2005 4:46 pm

that would depend on three things, methinks.

1. is one of the cigarettes already lit?
2. is the boat on fire?
3. are you a firebreathing dragon?

Grimar · Post by **Grimar** » Sat Aug 06, 2005 4:49 pm

none of those
