Hey, that's almost the exact puzzle from Professor Layton and The Curious Village! Another puzzle lover I presume?



Try this one on for size:

Mice are known for their ability to multiply at breakneck speeds. Every 1 month, the Mice give birth to 12 baby mice, but they can only give birth after 2 months so it can mature first.

Now, you go pick up one of these darling mice at the store the day after it was born. How many mice will you have in 10 months?

Have fun

Re: Riddles

Not quite.

You buy one mouse, presumably a baby one.

Two months later you now have 13 mice.

One month after that your first mouse gives birth again, so you have 25.

One month after that Your first mouse and it's first 12 give birth, so you've got 181.

One month after that your first mouse plus the 2nd set of mice gives birth, so you've got 325.

One month after that your first set +12 gives birth again, etc.

So, every month you have 1+12^n +12^(n-1)... mice, I believe.

Lemme check that, though.

hmmm, apparently not. I'll have to work on this some more, obviously.

Re: Riddles

You'll have one mouse won't you? You said you bought one mouse, it doesn't have a pair to mate with.

Re: Riddles

^He might be right.

You didn't mention a mate, or a female mouse.

One mouse, no mate.

Re: Riddles

Yes. Answer is right.

I eat, which makes me live. But when I drink, I die. What am I?

What gets wetter and wetter the more it dries?

How many pennies can you put into an empty piggy bank?

How many times can you subtract 5 from 25?

Lesse, the wet one is a towel. And you can subtract 5 from 25 as many times as you want, it will always equal 20.

4's right.

1 is trickier.

Re: Riddles

oh well, I misinterperted the riddle. I thought "I can sit here and write 25-5=20 all day long". That is the way my answer would work, but obviously was the wrong logic.

Edit: fire? Fire consumes oxygen, but can't survive water.
