I thought some jelly-fishes were just a big mass contrusted of other jellyfish, or whatnot......so I'd think you'd find another jellyfish there

Well, this is pretty bloody easy (although they all seem easy once you know the answer), but it's the only one that comes to mind at the moment:


1 + 2 - 3 = 139

Obviously this is wrong. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to change one symbol in order to make the sum correct. Wee!

!=, well I dont have the "does not equal symbol" or dont know how to input it.

[Tea Pad]

A valiant effort, sir! But no, I assure you this can be done without altering the = symbol in any way.

hmm, do you mean operation only? or all symbols, cuz I would just change that 1 to a 140, and its done.

[Esperchld]

Tea Pad,

Spoiler:

change the + into a 4 and you have 142-3=139 which is correct.

hmmm.... this one might be too easy:

A box with out door, key or lid.
Yet inside golden treasure is hid.

And here is a math one

What is the area under the curve y=1/(x^2) between x=1 and x=infinity, and above y=0.

since were given the doman 1 to inf, and at x=1, y=1. and the curve converges towards the y axis as the function apporaches inf, i will say that the area is 1.

or you can just intergrate 1/x^2 from 1 to inf.

dont know about the first one, a box maybe turned upside down?

[MAT86]

sorry if someones already posted a similar riddle (i skipped to the end of the thread)



there are 5 apples in a barrel 3 red apples and 2 green apples

there are three criminals condemed to death but the king declares that the criminals should be placed in a circle facing each other.
one apple was placed on each of their heads so that they could not see their own apple but could see the aplles on the other two guys heads.

the king says that the first man to rightly guess his apple was free to go.

two of the men had green apples
one of the men had a red apple

after a while one of the men with a green apple correctly guesed the colour of his apple

how did he know?

[p3psi]

I assume they couldnt talk to each other, and i assume that they did know that the apples came from that barrel and how many were in there?

is that correct? becuase i thought it through and...
