A peasant is convicted in China. He gets the death penalty. The judge allows him to say a last sentence in order to determine the way the penalty will be carried out. If the peasant lies, he will be hanged, if he speaks the truth he will be beheaded.
The peasant speaks a last sentence and to everybody surprise some minutes later he is set free because the judge cannot determine his penalty.
What did the peasant said?
An engineer in a car manufacturing company designs a world class car. The owner is impressed with the outcome and praised him a lot. While trying to bring out the car from the manufacturing area to the office they realized that the car is few inches taller than the entrance.
The engineer felt bad that he didn’t notice this one before creating the car. The owner was amazed on how to take it outside of the manufacturing area. The painter said that they can bring out the car and there will be few scratches on top of the car that he will do the tinkering later on.
The engineer said that they can break the entrance and after taking the car out, they can cement it. The owner was not convinced with any ideas and felt like it is a bad sign to break or scratch.
The watchman who was watching all this came to a Solution.

Flower math puzzle
What will be the value of Yellow flower + Red flower*Blue Flower?
Check your answer:-
Answer With ExplanationExplanation:
from first equation red flower = 20
from second equation blow flower = (30 – 20)/2 = 5
from third equation 5 – 2yelloflower = 3 => yello flower = (5-3)/2 = 1
Thus Yellow flower + Red flower*(Blue Flower with four petals)
yes thats the catch, blue flower with 4 petals should be of value 4
= 1 + 20 *4 = 81, remember BODMAS rule, multiplication first.
Can you solve this Math Equation?

Answer With ExplanationX%y = X*y/100 = (200/y)*(y/100) = 2
If we do 1 push up repetition per day, 3 sets, then increase it by one rep per week for same three sets, how many push ups will we be doing in 6months?
Check your answer:-
Answer With Solutionnumber of push ups in first week 3*7 = 21
so total number of push ups in 25 weeks = 21 + 21*2 + 21*3 …. 21*25
its an arithmetic progression with a1 = 21 and d = 21
its Sum = n(a1+an)/2 = 25(21 + 21*25)/2 = 21*25*26/2 = 6825
Push ups done in 5 days = 21*26*5/7 = 26*15 = 390
Total push ups in 6 months = 6825 + 390 = 7215.
jane, ali and pat each planted a tree 90cm in height . in the time it took jane’s tree to grow by 1 cm, ali’s tree grow by 2 cm. by the time it took ali tree to grow by 2cm pat tree grow by 3 cm . how tall was jane tree when pat tree was 108 cm in height.
Check your answer:-
Answer With SolutionAnswer: 96cm
Solution: let’s say jane’s tree grow by 1cm in X time, and in the same time ali’s tree grow by 2cm and pat’s tree grow by 3cm.
so to grow 108 – 90 = 18 cm, pat’s tree should take 18/3 = 6X time and jane’s tree should grow by 6cm in the same time.
Check your answer:-
Answer With SolutionAnswer: 4
Solution:
You might want to solve it simply like this
First equation: Football + Football + Football = 18 => Football = 18/3 = 6
Second Equation: Wall Clock= 9/3 = 3
Third Equation: Table Fan * Table Fan – Table Fan = 6 => (Table Fan) x (Table Fan – 1) = 6
from 3×2 = 6 => Table Fan = 3
Thus Wall Clock x Football – Table Fan = 3 x 6 – 3 = 15
BUT, if you look carefully, it is not a simple math equation puzzle, football in last equation is different than other, wall clock in 4th equation having different time than the ones in second equation, similarly table fan has 2 blades than 3.
So how do we solve it?
In the first equation black marks on Football are 6, therefore Football value is : 6
In the Second equation clock shows 3pm.. so clock value is 3
In the third equation, table fan has 3 blades, thus having a value of 3, OR you can say a table fan with 3 blades has value 3, thus with 2 blades should have a value 2.
In last equation clock is 2 and Football marks are 3, and table fan has 2 blades
thus 2×3 -2 = 4
