A little riddle..
Forums › General Discussion › A little riddle..-
You saw a shirt for £97
U dont have the money to buy it so u borrow £50 from ur mum and £50 from ur dad.£50+£50= £100
U bought the shirt, and had £3 change.
U gave ur dad £1 and ur mum £1 and kept the other £1 for yourself.
Now u owe ur dad £49 and ur mum £49.
£49+£49= £98 +ur £1 =£99Where is the missing £1?
-
No you fool. 98-1=97, which is the cost of the shirt.

The three remaining dollars are distributed one to yourself, one to your dad, and one to your mom.No you fool. 98-1=97, which is the cost of the shirt.

If you subtract the money that your mom and dad hold from the original amount of money, you must subtract yours as well.

I copy and pasted this from facebook lol maybe thats why it took me so long to figure out but i'm not sure if we came about the answer the same way

Lets try another one, everyone loves riddles lol...
What is the middle of nowhere?
What is half of 2 + 2?

Start with 100. Buy a shit that cost 97. You have three dollars left over.
You owe your parents 100. You pay them two dollars. That reduces the total debt to 98.
You are holding one dollar. If you were to give that dollar to either parent, that would reduce your debt to 97. Not increase it to 98.
97 is the cost of the shirt, so therefore every dollar is accounted for.

TL;DR - it's not a riddle, it's a miswritten math problem

Half of 2+2 is 2.

Half of 2 =1 so 1+2=3. 😰Right?

Ohh I guess it's how it's read. Good call math.

Here's a riddle I love
Two coins add up to 30 cents, one of them isn't a nickel, what are the two coins, it's easy for those who really think, if you don't get it ur kinda dumb, not to be offensive.
It's just a fun one I love

A quarter and a nickle. The one that is not a nickle would be the quarter.
