Hi everyone,
Last year, in my home town, there was a radio contest that my fiance and I tried to win. Everyday, for two weeks, a riddle is given, for every correct answer, you recieve a letter. At the end of the 2 weeks, the letters will turn into a word scramble, when correctley arranged it will be a hint as to where a 30,000 dollar wedding package will be hiding in a major department store in my home town. Last year, with the help of this site, we got all of the answers right, and even got the hint succesfully scrambled, but another couple beat us to the punch. We are going to try for it again this year. Unfortunetley, I am not the best riddler in the world, so I could use some brianiacts to help me out with the riddles.....I will post them everyday.....here are the first two riddles...one for yesterday and one for today........
How many birth days does the average man have?
What is the largest possible number you can write using only 2 digits - just 2 digits, nothing else?
Re: can anyone get the correct answers to these tricky riddl

The first answer is 1
The second answer is 9
9, which is 9x9x9x9x9x9x9x9x9 or translated to 387,420,489
