  • I have some riddles that can teach you to make the right choice faster.

  • They may seem simple at first, but don't relax.

  • It's just a delusion.

  • Your results will show how well you've done Number one, trick or treat.

  • A detective entered a restaurant and witnessed a heated argument between a waitress and a customer.

  • The waitress claimed that the man had ordered a steak and was now refusing to pay for it.

  • The customer, in turn, denied ordering the meat, saying he was trying to save money and came an hour ago just to drink some coffee.

  • The waitress kept forcing the man to pay for the steak.

  • The detective decided to interfere.

  • He addressed the waitress.

  • You know very well that this man couldn't order a steak.

  • If you don't stop this argument right now, I'll have to take it to the police station.

  • The question is, how did the detective realize the waitress was trying to deceive the customer?

  • You had to be very attentive to the smallest details to crack this riddle.

  • The clock on the wall shows the time.

  • 6:15 p.m. But the sign claims that you can order a hot meal on Lee until 3 p.m. If the man had spent only one hour in the restaurant, he obviously came way too late to order estate number two a difficult choice.

  • But Thomas didn't know who was who.

  • Even worse, the men were quite unfriendly and agreed to answer only one question.

  • Which question should be?

  • The only way to find out the right road is to ask the men.

  • If I asked the person standing next to you, which road led to town Z, what would his answer bay?

  • The liar would point in the wrong direction.

  • The man who always tells The truth would also point in the same wrong direction.

  • This way, Thomas would just need to choose the other road.

  • Three.

  • Hidden sweets.

  • There are four cups on the counter, all of them upturned and hiding the same number of sweets underneath near each of the cups.

  • There is a sign that says, How many sweets are under it?

  • The signs are five or 67 or 86 or seven and seven or five on Lee.

  • One of these signs is correct.

  • The question is, how many sweets are there under each cup?

  • Since only one sign is correct, the right number can appear twice.

  • Otherwise, more than one sign will be correct.

  • That means that there are eight suites under each cub.

  • Both guys liked her, but she wasn't interested in either of them.

  • To distract the boys, Blair invented a game.

  • The winner would have a chance to go on a date with her.

  • The rules were simple.

  • Eric and George had to sit down at a perfectly round table.

  • They had coins to cover this table with the coins, couldn't overlap or hang from the side of the table.

  • The first player had bigger chances to win if he placed his coin correctly.

  • The winner was the player who covered the table with the coins.

  • First, George was confident in himself and let Eric make his move first.

  • The question is what strategy Eric should choose to win.

  • Eric has to put his first coin in the middle of the table during his every next move.

  • He has to mirror the competitors.

  • Clark got into a car accident and lost his memory.

  • When he came around, his doctor told him that he had two pieces of news, a good and a bad one.

  • On the bright side, Clark was supposed to recover his memories.

  • Unfortunately, not all of them.

  • After the man was released from the hospital, he went home.

  • Clark lived alone and his house was equipped with an alarm system, but he had forgotten all about it.

  • When he entered the house, he unknowingly activated the alarm, and security officers immediately arrived at his house.

  • The only person who could switch off the alarm was Clark, but he couldn't remember the code.

  • After some time, the man found a note with some hints about how to crack this code, but nobody could understand what those hands met.

  • That's why the security service sent in there, Man Henry, a specialist in codes.

  • He read the note attentively.

  • The first password consists of five numbers.

  • The first number is three times bigger than the fifth.

  • The third number is smaller than the second by three.

  • The fourth number is bigger than the second by four.

  • Three pairs of the numbers add up to 11.

  • The question is which five number code Henry has to enter to switch off the terribly loud alarm.

  • The code is 6529 to the only way to figure it out is to use the substitution method.

  • This way, you'll come to the conclusion that there are only three suitable pairs of numbers, adding up to 11 and meeting all the other requirements.

  • Six plus 59 plus two and nine plus two.

  • Eighth, a trapped coin.

  • Nine Mislabeled boxes.

  • There are three boxes.

  • The 1st 1 contains Onley, red balls, the second Onley yellow ones, and the third contains red and yellow balls.

  • All the boxes air mislabeled and the labels say red, yellow and red and yellow.

  • You're allowed to take just one ball from one of the boxes.

  • After that, you have to say which color is in which box.

  • The question is, Which box should you choose?

  • Pick a ball from the box labeled red and yellow.

  • It's mislabeled, and if you grab a yellow ball, you'll know that the box labeled red, must contain mixed balls.

  • This way, the container labeled in yellow will contain Onley red balls.

  • You can apply the same logic if the ball you pull out of the mix box is red, and now the results.

  • I admit that these riddles were extremely trying and needed a lot of mental effort to crack.

  • That's why solving even one of them means your logic is up to the mark.

  • Still, if you manage to crack three or more riddles, you have outstanding logical and observation skills, which is bound to help you in work studies and everyday life.
