Riddles

Recommended Posts

Hey. I was board and i figured since i like riddles, ill start a little post for telling and answering riddles.

Only one rule: No profanity(please).

 

 

 

I'll start with the first riddle:

 

What has an eye that cannot see?

I've heard this one before. A needle.

 

 

Here's mine:

 

Three friends check into a motel for the night, and the clerk tells them the bill is $30. So, they each pay the clerk $10 and go to their room.

 

A few minutes later, the clerk realizes he has made an error and over charge the trio by $5. He asks the bellhop to return $5 to the friends who had just checked in.

 

The bellhop sees this as an opportunity to make $2 as he reasons that the three friends would have a tough time dividing $5 evenly among them: so he decides to tell them that the clerk made a mistake of only $3, giving a dollar back to each of the friends.

 

He pockets the leftover $2 and goes home for the day! Now, each of the three gets a dollar back, thus they each paid $9 for the room which is a total of $27 for the night.

 

We know the bellhop pocketed $2 and adding that to the $27, you get $29, not $30 which was originally spent. Where did the other dollar go?

The actual price of the room for each person is $8.33. The remaining "dollar" is split up and put into the $9 each spent for the room still making them overpay their stay.

 

Here's my riddle.

 

Make 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 turn into 100 only using two pluses ( + ) and two minuses ( - ). You can only use one number once.

 

 

 

123 + 45 = 168

168 - 67 = 101

101 + 8 = 109

109 - 9 = 100

Here's another. It's easy to figure out since I have to type it.

 

You're a bus driver. 5 people get on the bus. 2 leave. 16 people get on the bus, 7 leave. 20 more people get on the bus, 8 leave. 40 people get on the bus, 3 leave. 20 people leave and 15 more come on.

16 other people get on the bus and 1 leaves.

 

What's the bus driver's name?

I told you it would be easier if I wrote it. If I said it in person, you would've been confused and trying to figure out the numbers in your head. Works every time.

Definitely seems like it would be a really hard riddle.

My riddle:

 

You are a very very tall school bus driver on the way to pick up a few students.

At the first stop, 6 students board the bus.

At the second stop, 8 students board the bus.

At the third stop, 2 students exit the bus and 4 more get on.

At the last stop, the rest of the students exit the bus.

What color are the bus driver's eyes?

Here's one nobody can solve, you have to be as smart as me to figure this out... (Unless you heard it...)

 

2 trains travel:

On the Same track,

only one main track,

no intersections or other stops.

How did the 2 get to their locations, if

one travels north, and

the other travels south?

They go back and forth. When they meet at a stop, they just go back the way they came from.
