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]
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

by penguin_king
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?
