A riddle of riddles, it dances and skips;
It is read in the eyes, though it cheats in the lips;
If it meets with its match, it is easily caught;
But if money will buy it, it's simply worth nought.

DevilDougWS6 04-15-2009 05:42 PM

i was thinking love, but probably not.

Masonite 04-15-2009 06:36 PM

you're close on "love", but that's not quite it.

DevilDougWS6 04-15-2009 07:00 PM

Masonite 04-15-2009 07:02 PM

DevilDougWS6 04-15-2009 07:09 PM

Masonite 04-15-2009 07:10 PM

The original answer was "your heart". Gonna give this one to sweetbmxrider, since he was the closest, first.

there is a machine that produces 10 gram coins and bags them. there are 10 coins in a bag. the machine has produced 9 bags containing 10 of the 10 gram coins when an error occurs. it produces a bag containing ten 9 gram coins. due to the error, all of the bags have been mixed together so one can be distinguished from the other. there is a scale available but you can only use it once. how can you tell which bag contains the ten 9 gram coins in it?

feel each bag and see which one has 9 coins?

or open each bag and count them....you didnt say i couldn't

or put them all on the scale and take one off at a time until one bag removes only 90 grams, and that it.

Only once? I'v e heard the same riddle, but you can use the scale twice.

?

Also, the scale is a balance type, yes? Not one that tells you the weight?

all of the bags have ten coins in them. you can only get one reading from the scale
