Hey guys, I’m new here. I didn’t know where else to post this, so here goes!!
Beatrice ate 2/3 as many cakes as Annabel would have eaten if Annabel had eaten 6 more than half as many as Beatrice would have eaten if Beatrice had eaten 3 less than Annabel would have eaten. How many cakes did Beatrice eat?
And
“You used to perform on stage, didn’t you Grandad?” asked Peter. “A long time ago” said Grandad. “Tell him what you did” said Peter’s mother. “I was one thousand, two hundred, nothing and one transposed” said Grandad. What act did he perform on stage?
These are most likely trick questions, and I’m usually pretty good at solving them but these ones are pretty tough.
