Testing the grey matter

[Ian]

 A bat and a ball cost £1.10 in total. The bat costs £1 more than the ball. How much does the ball cost?

Answer tomorrow....if I remember 🙄☹️

[iansoady]

5p.

[Oldtimer]

5p.

Correct

[Smithy]

5p.

Spoilsport I wanted to seem clever by solving that!

 Consider a certain amount of grey matter truly tested.......
Or was it?

[CrazyFrog]

I thought the answer was 42

Well if it makes you all feel really clever, I'm still trying to work it out. Run out of fingers though 😉😉

[timbo]

Me neither. This is doing my head in! 

[iansoady]

The "automatic" reply is 10p. But that is 10p more than the bat......

I think I have seen it before somewhere so probably have an advantage.

As we're on games, most will have seen this but it's interesting nevertheless:

I got the number of passes correct but I didn't notice the gorilla.....bugga. I'm too selective 🙄🧐

[iansoady]

You're not supposed to mention that......

Ok, now the grey matter is well and truly flexed another to try ......though you may have heard this one before.....



"You’re in a room with two doors. There’s a guard at each door. One door is the exit, but behind the other door is something that will kill you. You’re told that one guard always tells the truth and the other guard always lies. You don’t know which guard is which. You are allowed to ask one question to either of the guards to determine which door is the exit.

What question should you ask?"

[Smithy]

Is the question

"Why can I never remember the question even though I've heard this one before?"

You ask the guard which door will kill me.
