so actually i saw this on facebook. it looked inteqesting so i put it here . so here are the rules i ll give you a question of wired maths ya guys have to solve it whoever solves it in one day he/she puts another question. dont start a new question untill the previous one isnt solved.if you give right answer then the one who put the Q. will say its right and if wrong he must say the answer so my Q.
1+4=10,
2+8=20,
3+12=30,
4+16=?

[James S Cassidy]

The answer is 40 with each beginning number multiplied by 6.

1 (x6) + 4 = 10
2 (x6) + 8 = 20
3 (x6) + 12 = 30
4 (x6) + 16 = 40

6 + 4 = 10
12 + 8 = 20
18 + 12 = 30
24 + 16 = 40

Or... Multiply the sum by 2

2(1+4)=10,
2(2+8)=20,
2(3+12)=30,
2(4+16)=?

2(5)=10
2(10)=20
2(15)=30
2(20)=40

And yep, the answer is 40.

[narulsaku]

yes you guys are right the answer is right. its 40.
so if any one got a question then share if not then here is another
1+1=2
2+2=8
3+3=18
7+7=?

[Shadow Wolf]

Hehehe, I love these things XD

OK, this one can be solved by using the following:

The equation at the moment is: X + X = ?

But to solve this riddle, you have to multiply the sum by the very number, which would make the formula like this: X(X+X) = ?

Here's how it works: X = 1, right?

1(1+1) = ?

1(2) = 2

Now apply to the others:

x=2
2(2+2)=8

x=3
3(3+3)=18

x=7
7(7+7)=?

2(4) = 8

3(6) = 18

7(14) = 98

So the answer is 98. Let me know if I got it correctly.

OK, let me see if I remember this one correctly:

Four friends (Leia, Linda, Luke and Louis) are accusing one another over who stole the money they had saved together and have caught themselves up in a 4-man standoff. Here are their statements:

Leia: Luke stole the money

Linda: Leia stole the money

Luke: Leia is lying

Louis: I didn't steal the money

Now then, only one of the is telling the truth while the other three are lying. If you find out the culprit, then you'll save the other three. If not, then no one will be saved XD. Use this information to find out who is the culprit.

Maybe I'm over looking this... but

(1+1)x 1=2
(2+2)x 2=8
(3+3)x 3=18

so

(7+7)x 7= 98

EDIT: DAMN IT SHADOW

The one with the cash box on his back XDDDDDDDD (If you get my reference)

Louis stole the money. XD He is the only one who points at himself.

yes that can be too! come on louis did you steal the money?

[Shadow Wolf]

James: Heh... You solved this one before after all, hahahahaha *tosses cookie*.

Anyway, James is right. Let's look at the statements to explain why. First, let's find out who speaks the truth. We have to make sure that only one of the is telling the truth. If we are to believe any of the others, then this would create a paradox since more then one people would be telling the truth. However, let's see what happens when we believe Luke:


Leia: Luke stole the money (Lies)

Linda: Leia stole the money (Lies)

Luke: Leia is lying (Truth, because Leia is indeed lying)

Louis: I didn't steal the money. (Lies)


And with this we have found our culprit. Nicely done James.

Well then, why not post a riddle James?

Don't you remember? The same puzzle is in Borderlands 2. XD

Well then, why not post a riddle James?

I don't know any good riddles.

ummm.....

It is greater than God and more evil than the devil. The poor have it, the rich need it and if you eat it you'll die. What is it?

[MangaReader]

You know James, I originally was thinking of ambrosia, but that would be silly... then I looked closer at the riddle.

The answer you seek is... nothing

[narulsaku]

okey ouey may be its not that easy . so . here if you make 11 1/9 to a compound fraction then you ll find it as 100/9, second 100/8 third 100/7 like that the "?" will be 100/5 but 100/5 = 20 isnt it? so if any one got some interesting question or not. if not i ll ask one more!
