TA, the skipper of the speedy water taxi service was transporting a client up river to his new business location. As soon as the boat left the dock the client fell asleep. After the boat had travelled 1 mile the clients hat blew off into the water and started to float downstream. The boat continued upstream for 5 more minutes before the client awoke and discovered his hat was missing. TA then turned the boat around and headed back down stream. They finally caught up with the hat just as it reached their original starting point. The sailing speed was constant whether going up stream or down stream can you figure out how fast the river was flowing.

Hello! We are back on line - nice place. Thanks Craven and crew Cool

Mark:

SEQUENCES
4.55 Cool

I made it:
1.33, 4.17, 1.39, 4.36, 1.45, (4.57)
The sequence goes divide by 3, then multiply by pi, divide by 3, multiply by pi, etc. But only the first 2 numbers following the decimal are written down, & used for the next step in the sequence.
I'm not going back for .02


no clue

My mistake, I don't know where it went, it sure did need one. Embarrassed
0.7, 0, 5, 8, 8, 2, 3, ?
The numbers shown are the digits following the decimal when you divide 12 by 17.


5 4 3 6 6 8 Cool
Each number represents the number of letters in the number in that order. That is: one = 3, two = 3, three = 5, etc.


STATELY SERIES
Georgia Cool

Wow, that's real clever.


"Nuther sequence:"

3 5 4 5 6 8 9 8 11

Are you sure its (11)?

I can get as far as : 3 5 4 5 6 8 9 8
Then I make it (9) 10

I.e. 1+3=4. 3+4=7. 4+7=11// 3-1=2+11=13. 13+4=17. 4-3=1+17=18. 7-4=3+18=21. 11-7=4+21=25. 25=10

Am I close, or what! Laughing



Oh happy days, you are too week for a clue.

6(1) 9(3) 6(5) 6(7) 7(2) 8(4) Question (6)



Still, I give you another month before you get it together.

My, you are the tricky one, or should I say, you 2. I took the first 1. Laughing

…….twentynine =10.
So I was right, albeit for a different reason.
Amazzzzzing! Razz

Mark:
SAME LINES
U Cool

A F MA P M JU U

Using the first 1 or 2 letters in the name of each month.

16?


Answer: 7 5 3 4 9 (8)

Number of letters in each month, but skipping a month each time. So January = 7, March = 5, May = 3, and so on.


Let us drink to your good health, what's shores?

"Huh!"

Thank you for taking part in a word recognition sample. Laughing

Skipping a letter each time, the series spells out the name of a country. (What shores?)

DrewDad:

What number is missing from this series?

I could make a case for 11. Cool

(Your wood making skills do you considerable credit) Laughing


2 3 5 7 13 17 (11)
The series is of the first prime numbers, and 11 was left out.



A patriotic series sets a precedent.
j v h t p Cool clever

w a j m m a (j)
The first letters of the last names of each of the first 7 US presidents.



Back off, it's prime time.
