I have no idea of that but look at this one,
You've got a sheet of paper 16 x 9 whose area is 144 units^2.
Just by one cut,(straight, diagonal, cross, zig-zag, any but one cut only) and rearrangement how will you convert it into a paper of 12 x 12? No paper shoould be wasted.

Re: Brain Teasers
The wise young sock monkeys never lunch in public, because they eat cracker lamps, because they do not dance on tight ropes, and are liable to giddiness, respected, look ridiculous, and take umbrellas for ballooning.
This one I liked very much, though the posts in this forum are dusty old!
Well, it is time to revive it a little -I want to suggest my site "rooms.jmpup.com" which generates the puzzles, similar to ones in a famous book "The Lady or the tiger" by Raymond M.Smullyan.
Enjoy! And lets discuss!

Re: Brain Teasers
green writing paragraph - its unusual because it has no letter "e" in the paragraph. then again, the word "unusual" is subjective...
purple paragraph - the gardener. the pages 45 and 46 are not adjacent. if the book is a typical style book, page 1 should start on the right hand side of the book and therefor 45 and 46 dont touch.
However, i dont like that riddle, beacuse who's to say that page 1 didnt start on the left hand side?
