In Ireland you cannot take a picture of a castle with a front door.

 

WHY?

 

RIPTIDE may help us? :D

Two groups of planes. Fly and meet. Group leaders begin talking. :argue:

 

- The leader of the first group says: "Give us one of your aircraft and we will have the same number of aircraft as you!"

- The leader of the second group response: "No! Give us one of your planes and we will be numerically twice stronger!"

 

How many planes have each group??? :unsure:

First group has 5, the other 7.

I can think of several possibilites:

 

1. There are no castles (or they aren't called castles?)

2. They have no doors at all (or they aren't called doors?)

3. They have no front doors

4. It is forbidden to take photos of doors

5. It is forbidden to take photos of castles

6. Everytime you try standing still to take a picture of a castle front door, a cow chases you away (Kerrygold anyone? :D )

 

EDIT: Actually I think all of those are wrong...

Or maybe you need some camera or smart phone to take a picture. :D

What is the color of the black box in a commercial airplane?

 

Got another question regarding these things.

 

If an aircraft's black box is virtually indestructible -- why isn't the entire plane built the same way? :D

I've got some small puzzles for you all...

 

Use the four basic binary operations (+, -, *, /) and the four numbers 1, 5, 5, 5 to construct an expression that equals 24. (An example of such an expression is 1+5*5-5. This of course is equal to 21, but not 24.)

 

Another puzzle would be to construct an expression using the four numbers 0, 0, 0, 0 and any operations that you can think of. The expression must still be equal to 24.

 

Brackets are of course allowed if you need them in expressions such as 0*(0+0-0).

 

Answer:

 

 

1. 5*(5-1/5) = 24

2. There are two possibilities to turn 0 into 1: 0! = cos(0) = 1. So we have either

(0!+0!+0!+0!)! = 4! = 24

or

(cos(0)+cos(0)+cos(0)+cos(0))! = 4! = 24.

 

QED
