The worlds first riddle!

"Don't forget; Psalms 81:10:" . . . open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it." - Ahem!

I likeTH when you quoteTH

You're mine,,,, your etcetras belong to me!

Try,,, do you have brown hair and eye's, with a large frame? Or do i make you, as i dream about you,,, all the time?

Good morning Jove, etc…

I do hope your dentist visit went painlessly and you now have the smile of an cherub!

"Try,,, do you have brown hair and eyes, with a large frame?"

Are you physic! That is the exact description the FBI put out; right down to the eyes. As for the frame; it may best be described as a cross between Herman Munster and Freddy Krueger.
Are you sure you are not having nightmares?

In order to join the A2K math club, potential members must guess a secret whole number from 1 to 50, by asking yes-or-no questions. Only Try, wanted to join, and he tried the following four questions:

Is the number greater than 25?
Is the number evenly divisible by 2?
Is the number evenly divisible by 3?
Is the number evenly divisible by 5?

After he was told the answers, he did some figuring and said, "I still don't have enough information. Is the number a perfect square?" When he got the reply "NO," Try knew what the number was. :wink:

Can you determine what the number was

My family is a cross betwen The Munsters, The Adams Family and Hogans Heroes.
So my dearest Herman Try,(fall's over when i look at the word Try)

if you were thee poorest person in the world and had no arms and leg's, i would sell my soul to Satan to help you!

In other word's, i'm madly in love with you. I have MRSA and have already been given drugs for it (they didn't work).

I can't be bothered to go to a doctor again. Apparently MRSA is very catchy and is spread through Hospitals.

The two hospitals i have frequented are Gilbert Addison Glouster, Ma. Anna Jacques Newburyport, Ma. and Merrimac Valley Hospitals.

I can't recommend any of them. Such is life. :wink:

God for Try and i! pta.

That is why I didn't answer that one. I figured he would come back with a joke about it

I was doing the A2K math question by hand and have eliminated the numbers 1,2,3,4,8,9,14,16,21,22,25,36,42,48 & 49. I see mark answered the question already so I will bet he is correct. Thus saving me the trouble of continuing on

Try, can you make God's phone number equal

~?yaways-are -you entertained-yet?

or the word's

You all welcum.

?

Truly, that would help me out with my memory problem. Four year's ago i woke up in a hospital, my memory hasn't been so good since then, truly.

no, no, no, yes, NO, 5


From the August 1996 issue of Games magazine.
The secret number was indeed 5.

The key to the problem was that Try was not able to answer the problem after getting the answers to the first four questions. He asked the fifth question to differentiate between perfect squares and numbers which were not perfect squares.

Look at all the possible combinations of yes or no answers to the four questions to see which one would require a fifth question(there are 16 possibilities).

If q1=N q2=Y q3=Y q4=Y
There are no numbers which fall in this category.

If q1=N q2=Y q3=Y q4=N
There are four possible numbers: 6, 12, 18, and 24.
But asking the 5th question does not help because there are more than 2 numbers which are not squares.

If q1=N q2=Y q3=N q4=Y
There are two numbers: 10 and 20.
But asking the 5th question does not help because there are more than 2 numbers which are not squares.

If q1=N q2=Y q3=N q4=N
There are 6 numbers: 2, 4, 8, 14, 16, and 22.
But asking the 5th question does not help because there are more than 2 numbers which are not squares.

If q1=N q2=N q3=Y q4=Y
There is only one number: 15.
Therefore, you would not need to ask the fifth question.

If q1=N q2=N q3=Y q4=N
There are three numbers: 3, 9, and 21.
But asking the 5th question does not help because there are more than 2 numbers which are not squares.

If q1=N q2=N q3=N q4=Y
There are two numbers: 5 and 25.
Asking the 5th question tells you that the number is 5 since it is not a perfect square.

If q1=N q2=N q3=N q4=N
There are seven numbers: 1, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23.
But asking the 5th question does not help because there are more than 2 numbers which are not squares.

If q1=Y q2=Y q3=Y q4=Y
There is only one number: 30.
Therefore, you would not need to ask the fifth question.

If q1=Y q2=Y q3=Y q4=N
There are three numbers: 36, 42, and 48.
But asking the 5th question does not help because there are more than 2 numbers which are not squares.

If q1=Y q2=Y q3=N q4=Y
There are two numbers: 40 and 50.
But asking the 5th question does not help because there are more than 2 numbers which are not squares.

If q1=Y q2=Y q3=N q4=N
There are seven numbers: 26, 28, 32, 34, 38, 44, 46.
But asking the 5th question does not help because there are more than 2 numbers which are not squares.

If q1=Y q2=N q3=Y q4=Y
There is only one number: 45.
Therefore, you would not need to ask the fifth question.

If q1=Y q2=N q3=Y q4=N
There are three numbers: 27, 33, and 39.
But asking the 5th question does not help because there are more than 2 numbers which are not squares.

If q1=Y q2=N q3=N q4=Y
There is only one number: 35.
Therefore, you would not need to ask the fifth question.

If q1=Y q2=N q3=N q4=N
There are seven numbers: 29, 31, 37, 41, 43,47, 49.
But asking the 5th question does not help because there are more than 2 numbers which are not squares.

Who me!

Good bet; but, you were on the right track!


Jove; "…when I woke up in a hospital, my memory hasn't been so good since then, truly."

You are lucky; when I was born…..My memory has…what are we talking about!!!

Oh! The chickens are fine; thank you!

I had an awakening in a hospital,,, since then , my memory leans toward healthy people.


Hi Try, (don't mind that ^), i have a mad crush on you. It's to bad Typhoid Mary sound's angelic next to my name

so how are you?

KBELER = blinker?

CCHH = chinch

TFAED = fainted

Stormwatch
I came up with chinch & fainted, but nothing on the other one

TTH... the first one can only be 'blinker' if one 'e' is eliminated, so I'm probably wrong.

But then Try has been spelling challenged on a few occasions in the past... :wink:

I am betting you are right Stormwatch

Stormy:

KBELER = blinker?

Yes! That was my bad; well spotted.

CCHH = chinch

TFAED = fainted

Nice!


TTH

I came up with chinch & fainted…

I am not surprised, sorry for wasting your time.


Jove, I like your real name, it's kinda pretty. Can you save some of that crush for Mark; I don't want him to feel left outta the action! :wink:

To prove my mind is going: This is what I forgot to post last night!



Start with the set of the twenty-one numbers 0 >…. 20.

That is: 0,1,2,3,4,5.....20


Can you arrange these numbers into 7 subsets each of three numbers so that when the numbers in each are added together, they make seven consecutive numbers

For example, one subset might be {2, 7, 16} = 2 + 7 + 16 = 25
The next might be {4, 5, 17} = 4 + 5 + 17 = 26

Dear Markr, you are poorer than poor, but will gain much in wisdom!


Hi Try,,, i like the name Raphaehell. Jove is short for 'Govas'. pronounced ~Jovas'.
