The word "you", can it be replaced by: "Every human being on Earth"?

I posted that and then went to sleep.

Yes, it's a jacket, a coat, or a sweater...

That's right!

New one:

Can you figure out what number is the next and final in this sequence:

5, 6, 0, 3, 2, 4, 8, 5, 3, ?

This is really off-the-wall so it may take a while.

Um..... 2?
I would lol if that was right!

Muzozavr · Post by **Muzozavr** » Tue Mar 06, 2012 9:31 am

no lols, it's wrong, sorry.

Hint:

it's not *really* a number sequence, it's just presented as such

CORRECT!!!

(Explanation for others: if you look at the top letter row of your QWERTY keyboard, those numbers together with the last "4" correspond to T Y P E W R I T E R, which is the longest word that can be typed using the top row only)

OMG !
This so hard puzzle !

Sammy_Bro · Post by **Sammy_Bro** » Tue Mar 06, 2012 2:33 pm

Oh, so were talking about patterns, eh?

THEN LET'S DO IT WITH HARDER PUZZLES!

What letter replaces the question mark?

A A A A ? A A A A A A

NOTE: The answer is not A.

oh, and I may forget the answer so here it is

ANSWERS!!!! wrote:A A A A N A A A A A A

from epsiloN, last letters of the Greek alphabet, alpha, beta, gamma, delta, epsilon, zeta, eta, theta, iota, kappa, lambda, mu.

OH, and you suddenly cheat if you post the answer within 2 hours of this post.

Muzozavr · Post by **Muzozavr** » Tue Mar 06, 2012 2:51 pm

By looking at how almost impossible it becomes when solving... I suddenly regret posting my numbers.

Oh, and just write your answer down on a piece of paper and take it out of your post. (I looked, so I am "disqualified")

Please explain.

I have a number puzzle here

7, 1, 0, ?,

What comes next?

Marinus · Post by **Marinus** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 12:21 am

-0.1667

7-6=1
1-6/6=0
0-6/6/6=-0.1667

What?

A better number sequence: 3 3 5 4 4 3 5 5 4 3

What would be the 12th number of this sequence?

LittleZbot · Post by **LittleZbot** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 2:15 am

1? 2? 3? 4? 5? 6? 7? 8? 9? 10? 11? 0? 12?

There is a possibility that it might be one of those.

I think it's 3, but even if that's right, I'm still clueless as to what comes after...

hoomdoom · Post by **hoomdoom** » Wed Mar 07, 2012 1:20 pm

Hint: It isn't technically anything about number sequence, but at the same time, it is!

11 would be 6.

The answer is...

5. When you insert the full sequence on calculator, turn it upside down to get the word "SOIL"

No.

The answer is that one, two three, four, five etc.

Has 3, 3, 5, 4, 4, letters.

Therefore it would be 6.

Technos72 · Post by **Technos72** » Thu Mar 08, 2012 1:05 am

I made up that puzzle, which means I made up the correct answer

Marinus · Post by **Marinus** » Thu Mar 08, 2012 1:16 am

Haha, it seems the two of you are talking about two different puzzles.

Perhaps the best way is mentioning to which puzzle you give the answer. (unless you answer to the puzzle directly above)

Technos72 · Post by **Technos72** » Thu Mar 08, 2012 2:12 am

agh fail. Yeah that was the answer to my question. Sorry

LittleZbot · Post by **LittleZbot** » Fri Mar 09, 2012 2:22 am

This one's simple:

Guy wanted a friend of his, Joe, to deliver his three new video games to him when the mailman dropped them off. Joe started on his way to Guy's house, but, along the way, he came upon a bridge that could only support 150 pounds and under. He weighed 149 pounds and each video game weighed only 5.4 ounces. If he carried all three of them, it would be just two ounces over the limit, but the bridge would still break(Yes, it's fragile.). However, the video games were safely delivered soon after. How did he cross the bridge with the video games without breaking it?

LittleZbot · Post by **LittleZbot** » Fri Mar 09, 2012 2:27 am

I never thought of that. Good solution, but it's not the intended one. He has to carry all three of them at once when he crosses the bridge.
