Newtonian Posted February 19, 2005 Posted February 19, 2005 Eh Martin wth!!. Congratulations jdurg..Whats that about,I think you will find i got the damn answer correct FIRST,thats right first.All you asked for was the odd one out,which i gave you.You didnt ask the reason for it being the odd one out had to correlate with what you had swimming about in your mind.I want you to congratulate me.ME.MEEEEEEE! I will have your damn praise Martin,you have no right to withhold it from me,i demand it you hear.
Martin Posted February 19, 2005 Posted February 19, 2005 Congratulations Newtonian. You guessed Boron too.
Martin Posted February 19, 2005 Posted February 19, 2005 we need a new word puzzle. do you happen to have one Newtonian or jdurg?
Newtonian Posted February 19, 2005 Posted February 19, 2005 Yes cross out nine letters leaving a single word and tell me what it is NAISNIENLGELTETWEORRSD
Martin Posted February 19, 2005 Posted February 19, 2005 Yes cross out nine letters leaving a single word and tell me what it is NAISNIENLGELTETWEORRSD I am stumped. I can see how to cross out ELEVEN letters and leave "A SINGLE WORD" n A i S n I e N l G e L t E t W e O r R s D (just erase the lowercase letters and keep the caps) but I do not see how to erase NINE letters and have anything left that makes sense hope that jdurg or somebody else has better luck!
Newtonian Posted February 19, 2005 Posted February 19, 2005 Hahahaha.. muhahahahahahha:-) Of course it makes sense Martin ,must try harder.
jordan Posted February 19, 2005 Posted February 19, 2005 Wow, it makes sense now but Martin pretty much showed me. I wouldn't have come up with it on my own. Very clever though.
Martin Posted February 20, 2005 Posted February 20, 2005 Here's a pure math puzzle, and an easy word puzzle----try either or both. What is the next number in this sequence? 2 5 28 257 3126 There is a word that can be added to each of these to make a new word. DUST BOARD FISH What is it?
dan19_83 Posted February 20, 2005 Author Posted February 20, 2005 the number one is 46657. [(n to the power of n) plus 1] where n = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. that's a good one. the word one i haven't yet though
Martin Posted February 20, 2005 Posted February 20, 2005 the number one is 46657. [(n to the power of n) plus 1] where n = 1' date=' 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. that's a good one. the word one i haven't yet though[/quote'] Right! 66 + 1 = 46657 Here is another. There is a trick involved in it (but really only a very simple one) what is the next term? 1 4 11 20 31
dan19_83 Posted February 23, 2005 Author Posted February 23, 2005 The simple ones always seems to get me!! any hints?
Newtonian Posted February 23, 2005 Posted February 23, 2005 There is a word that can be added to each of these to make a new word. DUST BOARD FISH What is it? Easy peezy,STAR
Martin Posted February 23, 2005 Posted February 23, 2005 Easy peezy,STAR Yes! STARDUST STARBOARD STARFISH
Martin Posted February 23, 2005 Posted February 23, 2005 The simple ones always seems to get me!! any hints? how many legs does a spider have? (maybe that's a bad hint and will just mislead you but I'll let it stand)
jdurg Posted February 23, 2005 Posted February 23, 2005 How about this? way' date=' dog, ground, handed[/quote'] UNDER
jdurg Posted February 23, 2005 Posted February 23, 2005 Right! 66 + 1 = 46657 Here is another. There is a trick involved in it (but really only a very simple one) what is the next term? 1 4 11 20 31 44? (I'm still trying to figure out the logical mathematical reason. That 1 is bugging me though. ) Anyway, here's what I've come up with but I don't think it works thanks to that damned 1. lol. (1^2) (2^2) + 0 (3^2) + 2 (4^2) + 4 (5^2) + 6 (6^2) + 8 See why that 1 is confusing me.
Martin Posted February 23, 2005 Posted February 23, 2005 44? (I'm still trying to figure out the logical mathematical reason. That 1 is bugging me though. ) Yes 44 is right! Can you now get the next term? 1 4 11 20 31 44 ?
jdurg Posted February 23, 2005 Posted February 23, 2005 Yes 44 is right! Can you now get the next term? 1 4 11 20 31 44 ? 59?
Martin Posted February 23, 2005 Posted February 23, 2005 UNDER Yes. underway, underdog, underground, underhanded
Martin Posted February 23, 2005 Posted February 23, 2005 59? good for trying, but no (you havent got it yet, but 44 was right)
Newtonian Posted February 24, 2005 Posted February 24, 2005 Martin you still have not fed my ego,what about black to white in four,pretty sure its damn smart and cannot be beaten EVER.Its a mathematical cert. So feed me seymour..feed me!
Martin Posted February 25, 2005 Posted February 25, 2005 this thread still has two unanswered puzzlers 1. suppose that 9 x 13 = 2 7 x 11 = 6 17 x 23 = 9 then what is 27 x 15 = ? ------------------- dan19_83 knows the answer (he or a friend answered it and then erased it) please somebody, dan19_83 or whoever, post the answer -------------------- 2. the other problem is a what comes next? 1 4 11 20 31 44 ? hint: keep in mind that in puzzle 2. what you are looking at is a sequence of six numbers but they might not be conventional decimal numbers
Ducky Havok Posted February 27, 2005 Posted February 27, 2005 61, its in base 8. In decimal it would be 1 4 9 16 25 36 then 49
