Okay, I got one! Thanks to playing "Professor Layton & the Curious Village" XD The game makes me feel like a dork 50% of the time ^^' But at least it's educational XD A brother and a sister are sitting at a table. Brother: Say, sis, if I gave you two years of my age, you'd be twice my age! Sister: Well bro, if you give me one more of that, I'll be three times your age!How old is each sibling? (Math riddles, hurrah!) |

They are! x3 But how old are they? Sorry, this really is torture, isn't it? XD (Hint: everytime the brother gives one year of his age to his sister, his age decreases by one too! Example: If he were 8, and gave on year to his sister, he'd be 7)

A wild shot here xD
8??
Based on the things you wrote in fat "Two, one, twice, three"... 2+3=5 2+1=3 3+5=8 ^^'

Almost! x3 But that's not it I'm afraid. Because if the boy was 8, and gave two years to his sister, he would be 6 and she would be 10, which doesn't equal 6x2.
Sorry, my riddles are kinda boring XD Too school-related ^^'

I'm right? XD Wow, I didn't see that coming actually! XD! Must be from playing "Professor Layton & the Curious Village"! *giggles* ^^ It's a fun game! :3 Alright I got one another one too! There's some kind of mouse species, which gives birth to 12 babies. The babies are full grown after one month and each give birth to 12 babies aswell. You buy one mouse at the pet shop and take it home. How many mice will you have after 10 months? |

1. Seeing as mice don't breed with themselves.
Here's 1 for you.
You have 10 rows of coins. In each row is 10 coins. But there is 1 row of false coins.
Normal coins weigh 10 kg. False coins weigh 9 kg. You have a pair of scales, which give you the number of weight.
You may only weigh once. How do you find out which row is false?

*launches fireworks* That is correct! ;D Well observed! ^^
I'm kinda stumped on that one though XD I'll think some more about it!
EDIT: No, wait! XD Is this the answer? It's impossible for a coin to weigh 10kg.

No, actualy, it's not. And it sure is possible. But if you feel better about it, it weighs 10 grams. And the false one 9 grams.
