The worlds first riddle!

SSGG = Sing Sing
SSONGG = sing song

Clever!

How many different ways can the letters of the word 'logic' be arranged

Thanks for asking but, no it isn't. The pain is incredible almost to the point of unbearable. I am waiting on medical doc to send me to a specialist to talk about surgery, which I really don't want.
This one requires thought, which I don't have time to do right now. I have to go to a dr appt.
So, my guess is over 100 but, less than 150.

LOGIC
[size=7]five different letters means 5! = 120[/size]

Hm... I used to know a way to solve this... it was either permutation or combination. I'll try the permutation formula:

P(h,k) is equivalent to

h!
_
(h-k)!

So therefore if we have 5 letters that we need 5 of, the equation will be such:

5!
_
(5-5)!

Which equals:

5!
_
1

Which (finally) gives the answer:
120

Mark:

LOGIC
five different letters means 5! = 120


The Counting Principle says to multiply 5 * 4 * 3 *2 * 1 to get the total number of arrangements.


TehMeh:

120


"I used to know a way to solve this…"

Looks like you still do!


TTH:

Over 100 but, less than 150.

True.



CTOMAXE


GPLAMAYEGS

CTOMAXE = income tax


GPLAMAYEGS = playing games

I will just use a similar answer I used before.
tax me after the company or tax the company before me

Stormy:

CTOMAXE = income tax


GPLAMAYEGS = playing games



TTH:

CTOMAXE = I will just use a similar answer I used before.

Did you get it right before?



How many different displays of 2 flags, (one directly above the other) can be made on a flagpole if 7 flags, all different, are available for use


(Note: Flag 1 above flag 2 is a different display than flag 2 above flag 1..)



1 = W on a U

1 = H on a U

3 = B M (SHTR)

1 = W on a U = one wheel on a unicycle

1 = H on a U =one horn on a unicorn

3 = B M (SHTR) three blind mice ( see how they run)

ooo Try, is that a pochhammer symbol in your pocket or a falling sequential product?

Stormy:

1 = W on a U = one wheel on a unicycle

1 = H on a U =one horn on a unicorn

3 = B M (SHTR) three blind mice ( see how they run)

Nice!



Slippy asks, "Try, is that a pochhammer symbol in your pocket or a falling sequential product?"

It's the notation used in the theory of special functions for the rising factorial, also known as the ascending Factorial.

However, the truth is; I don't have pockets in these pants, I'm just pleased to see ya!


EJOD

10SNEONE



4 = Q in a G

4 = W on a C

4 = Q in a D

4 quartz in a gallon
4 wheels on a car
4 quarters in a dollar
Not sure if they are right, they all fit though I think

joined

still haven't figured out the other...seems like it is ten something?

10SNEONE
[size=7]Let me grab my racquet, and I'll play.[/size]

4 quarts in a gallon

Tryism
I trust you understand me
tennis anyone, thanks mark

What can I say, rocks were on my mind

TTH:

4 = Q in a G = 4 quartz in a gallon (I know what you mean)
4 = W on a C = 4 wheels on a car
4 = Q in a D = 4 quarters in a dollar

EJOD = joined

Exactly right!


Mark:

Let me grab my racquet, and I'll play. (tennis anyone) :wink:

4 quarts in a gallon

Exactly right; again!



I left all my paperwork out where I shouldn't have, and now someone's ruined it in the blink of an eye.

Not only does it seem like things are missing, but these were all over the place to create this mess…

Add a missing letter to each word; then write an answer. Then read downward from first letters of the answers to find out the cause of the problem. I have started the first one.


1) ? (?) = S

2) hoe inks (5) =

3) lightly pen (4) =

4) all hair (5) =

5) ants older (6) =

6) lack umber (5) =

7) word over (6) =

If you are passing St. Anthony Street/ Junction of Water Street. do call in for a drink!

...I would but wouldn't you rather me bring a cake with a file in it? Actually the only time I had to go to the courthouse was to work a reckless driving ticket off (60 in a 35 when I was 19) worked for the Mayor for a day - There are other places around there - but I would still consider you a crook if you were one of the lawyers down that way as well...or - I guess you could work at the docks...ship building?.......nah!
Had a lovely time in my little home town - looking forward to Mardi Gras next!

Thank you TTH - hope all is well with you

Hey, what's the difference between a Catfish and a lawyer?














One is a scum sucking bottom dweller, and the other is a fish.

No seriously, why do they bury lawyers 27 feet deep? 'Cuz deep, deep down, we're good people!


Give my regards to Broadway! Remember me to Herald Square! Tell all the gang at Forty Second Street That I will soon be there! Tell Ma and Pa hi, and thanks for the cake…Happy Christmas!!!


PS. The A-Z file was nice, but I was hoping for one with sharp sides!


5 = D in a Z C

6 = C in a P C

7 = W of the W

7 = D of the W




TTH, Just about to post when I saw your picture; just wonderful…have a good Christmas with the doggies!
