Some birds were flying and met a bird on their way. The bird greeted them, “hello hundred!” They said “we are not hundred, we need half of us plus you to make us hundred.”
How many birds were Flying?

Answer

x = some birds flying
x + (x/2) + 1 = 100
(2x + x)/2 = 99
3x = 198
x = 66

1st answer:

Total birds flying = x = 66

That is, if the bird who greeted them hello is just resting and not flying.

2nd answer:

Total birds flying = some birds + another flying bird who greeted them “hello"

Total birds flying = 66 + 1 = 67

Imagine you are in a room with 3 switches. In adjacent room there are 3 bulbs (all are off at the moment), each switch belongs to some bulb. It is impossible to see from one room to another.
How can you find out, which switch belongs to which bulb, if you may enter the room with bulbs only once?

Answer

Keep the first bulb switched on for a few minutes. It gets warm, right? So all you have to do then is... switch it off, switch another one on, walk into the room with bulbs, touch them and tell which one was switched on as the first one (the warm one) and the others can be easily identified...

A poor farmer went to a market to sell some pea and lentil, however as he had only one sack and didn't want to mix peas and lentils, he poured in the sack the peas at first, bound the sack up and than poured in the lentils. At the market a rich innkeeper wanted to buy the peas, but he did not want the lentils.
How would you solve this problem if you had only the sack of innkeeper, which he wants to keep (without devaluing the goods).

Answer

Pour the lentils into the innkeeper’s sack, bind it and turn inside out. Pour in the peas.
Then unbind the sack a pour the lentils back to your sack.
