Riddles!

[Parsley]

A chap was walking to St Ives, and met a man with seven cats... Each cat has seven sacks, and in each sack were seven kittens... Half of the kittens were male -
how many female kittens were there?

Answers on a postcard, to the usual address.

i pulled out a calculater and got 171.5, but i dont think he has 1 mutant cat, half male, half female.

Visa the maths question earlier.

The friends paid $25 - which means that in actual fact they had paid $8.33r each.

Getting $1 back each means that each actually had $9.33r.

Not a problem with the mathematical system - I think the riddle just tries to hide this anomaly through verbal/mathematical sleight of hand.

You said that riddle a bit different I don;t know the answer

I still don't understand that Missing Dollar riddle, even though I have heard it so many times. Why does the riddle say $29 and the answer is $30, when both cases seem to have perfectly logical explanations?

[Dodger]

It was supposed to be my turn to tell a riddle!

[Bakster]

Well, I haven't done much at all here so time for me to post a few! My source of riddles is now available:

1. A word I know, six letters it contains. Subtract just one, and twelve is what remains.

2. What is the only common four letter word in the English Language that ends in -eny?

3. A cat has one, a horse two - some animals have more

An elephant has only three - while a crocodile has four.

What are they?

4. A token of ones love - a constant bend

Have no beginning … I also have no end.

What am I?

5. The sound of humour, happiness, joy, thrilled

Now add an ‘s’ it’s carnage, massacred, killed.

More to come!

Parsley, the anamoly falls into place because they each put up 10 to begin with
and they each get a dollar back
which means that they each pay 9 dollars.
thats a fact
they each payed 9 dollars.
and the bellhop took 2
and the math comes out to 29 dollars, but they paid 30.
its a mathmatical flaw

bakster, you and parsley both asked out of turn. we made it so you have to answer 1 before you can ask 1.
and we are keeping score.
so please go and cut your wrists now and die ashamed.
or at least say your sorry.

love
