Riddle me this

[SMaxxin]

I think secret is right but I like the ex wife answer better LOL

 

[marauder]

an ex wife

:hammer: hahahahahahaha, you win!


I'm with the other one on the "secret" answer. Can't really see it being anything else.

 

[robmob]

Secret is correct.

 

[nitrogator]

ex wife sounded like the best answer i wish they were that easy to get rid of

Now to really give your brains a workout...

A census taker comes to a man's home. Upon inquiring about the ages
of his three children, he receives the following reply. “If you
multiply their ages, you get 72. Furthermore, the sum of their ages is
the house number” (which the census taker knows to be 14).

The census taker considers the situation for a moment, then says,
'Okay. I need one more piece of information.'

'Sure thing,' replies the man. 'My oldest child loves chocolate.' The
census taker smiles, thanks the man, and walks away. How old are the
man's three children?

2 4 and 9?
Although I get the feeling this is one of those answer has nothing to do with last bit of question sorta things...

 

[nitrogator]

you got me on this one i have no clue

 

[robmob]

After reading this over and over, there can be a couple of different answers. The only way to eliminate all but one, is to give the house number which is 14.

Try it now.

They are 8, 3 and 3. The chocolate comment at the end indicates that the oldest child is not a twin, but the younger 2 can be.

 

[robmob]

That's right.

What always ends everything?

This year Kerry celebrated her birthday. Two days later her older twin brother, Terry, celebrated his birthday. How come?

 

[neobart]

She was born on February 28th just before midnight, and he was born March 1st just after midnight. And it's a leap year.

That's my best bet.

Wait I just realized the she was the yunger one..............I'm clueless.

 

[Candyman]

AND...the parents, being the wonderful parents they are, confused the kids when they were young and thought Kerry was Terry and vice versa.

(see, the Feb 28-March 1 leap year thing works only if the older child was born on the 28th)

 

[robmob]

You are on the right track, but there is only one way this could have happened.

Hint:

The mother was traveling when she gave birth.

 

[neobart]

Is there a Delorean involved?
