Question

Solve the following riddles, you may yourse Who am (i) Go round a square Counting every corner Thrice and no more! Add the count to me To get exactly thirty four!​

Answer 1

Answer:

(i) Let I be denoted by x. We

know that a square has 4 corners

and each corner is counted thrice.

Total number of comers

= 4 x 3 = 12 By given condition,

my self + total number of corners

x + 12 34 Now,

x = 34 12 = 22⇒ x = 22 By

inspection, we have 22 + 12 = 34

Thus, I am 22. (ii) Let I be denoted by

x. There are 7 days in a week. By

given condition up counting from x

for 7, we get the sum = 23 i.e.

x + 7 = 23 Now,

=

x = 23 7 = 16 ⇒ x = 16 By

inspection, we have 16 + 7 = 23

Thus, I am 16. (iii) Let the special

number = x Then, as per given

condition take away 6 from x =

whole cricket team i.e. x - 6 = 11

In cricket team, number of players =

11 Now,

x = 11 + 6 = 17⇒ x = 17 By

inspection, we have 17 - 6 = 11

Thus, the special number is 17. (iv)

Let I be denoted by x. By given

condition, take out of 22 = x|

22 - x = x ⇒1

x + x = 22 ⇒

2x = 22

⇒x= 11 By

inspection, we have 2 x 11 = 22

Thus, I am 11.
