HI EVERYONE ! This is Amirah Akhyar, whoosh whooosh.

I've found many interesting games on the Internet and I just want to share some of them with you guys :D

This is the first one.

Riddles

Why is the longest human nose on record only 11 inches long ?

Answer : Otherwise it would be a foot.

LOLOLOLOL.


If you take three apples from five apples, how many do you have ?

Hi guys, this is Shahirah, sharing some Maths games with you.


Have fun :)



TA-DAAAAAAA!

And a game about trigonometry here.


And one about ratio and proportion here.


AND NOW, FOR SOME RIDDLES!

-How can you add eight 8's to get the number 1000? (use only addition)

-Three lawyers rent a hotel room for the night. When they get to the hotel they pay the $30 fee, then go up to their room. Soon the bellhop brings up their bags and gives the lawysers back $5 because the hotel was having a special discount that weekend. So the three lawyers decide to each keep one of the $5 dollars and to give the bellhop a $2 tip. However, when they sat down to tally up their expenses for the weekend the could not explain the following details:
Each one of them had originally paid $10 (towards the initial $30), then each got back $1 which meant that they each paid $9. Then they gave the bellhop a $2 tip. HOWEVER, 3 • $9 + $2 = $29
    The lawyers couldn't figure out what happened to the other dollar. After all, the three paid out $30 but could only account for $29.
Can you determine what happened?
AND THE ANSWERS ARE....






-The key to this math riddle is realizing that the one place must be zero.
888 +88 +8 +8 +8 =1,000

-There are many ways of explaining/thinking bout this truly brain bending riddle! It all boils down to the fact that the lawyers's math is incorrect. They did NOT spend $9 • 3 + $2.
They spent exactly $27 dollars. $25 for the room and $2 for the tip. Remember they got exactly $3, in total back.
Another way to think about the answer to this riddle is to just pretend that the bellhop refunded $3 to the lawyers (rather than giving them $5 and recieving $2 back). If the lawyers get $3 back and each takes $1. They they spent exactly $27 dollars.



And my job here is done. Have fun tomorrow guys. Get into as much trouble as humanly possible before school starts on Monday. Bubye.

Hello hello :) this is awesome, okay okay this is Diana :)
Have fun ! Here are some jokes for you guys :)


1 ) Teacher, I can't solve this problem.
     Any five year old should be able to solve this one.
     No wonder I can't do it then, I'm nearly ten !

2)  Why is six afraid of seven ?
     Because seven ate nine.

3)  My dog is great at math. 
     Really ? 
     Ask him how much is two minus two. 
     But two minus two is nothing! 
     That’s what he’ll answer, nothing!

4)  Math and Alcohol don't mix, so... PLEASE DON'T DRINK AND DERIVE

5)  Q: What is the area of a circle?
     A: pi R^2?
     R: Pie are not square. Pie are round. Cornbread are square.

6)  There are three kinds of mathematicians:
      those who can count and those who can't.
      There are two groups of people in the world;
      those who believe that the world can be
      divided into two groups of people,
      and those who don't.
      There are two groups of people in the world:
      Those who can be categorized into one of two
      groups of people, and those who
 can't.

7)  A biologist, a statistician, a mathematician and a computerscientist are on a photo-safari in Africa. They   drive out on the savannah in their jeep, stop and scout the horizon with their binoculars.
The biologist: "Look! There's a herd of zebras! And there, in the middle : A white zebra! It's fantastic! There are white zebra's! We'll be famous!"
The statistician: "It's not significant. We only know there's one white zebra."
The mathematician: "Actually, we only know there exists a zebra, which is white on one side."
The computer scientist: "Oh, no! A special case!"

8)  An engineer, a chemist and a mathematician are staying in three adjoining cabins at an old motel. First the engineer’s coffee maker catches fire. He smells the smoke, wakes up, unplugs the coffee maker, throws it out the window, and goes back to sleep.
Later that night the chemist smells smoke too. He wakes up and sees that acigarette butt has set the trash can on fire. He says to himself, “Hmm. How does one put out a fire? One can reduce the temperature of the fuel below the flash point, isolate the burning material from oxygen, or both. This could be accomplished by applying water.” So he picks up the trash can, puts it in the shower stall, turns on the water, and, when the fire is out, goes back to sleep.
The mathematician, of course, has been watching all this out the window. So later, when he finds that his pipe ashes have set the bedsheet on fire, he is not in the least taken aback. He says: “Aha! A solution exists!” and goes back to sleep.

9) A mathematician, a biologist and a physicist are sitting in a streetcafe watching people going in and coming out of the house on the other side of the street. 

First they see two people going into the house. Time passes. After awhile they notice three persons coming out of the house.


The physicist: “The measurement wasn’t accurate.”The biologists: “They have reproduced”.                                                                                             The mathematician: “If now exactly one person enters the house then it will be empty again.”



10)  One day a mathematician decides that he is sick of math. So, he walks down to the fire department and announces that he wants to become a fireman.
The fire chief says, "Well, you look like a good guy. I'd be glad to hire you, but first I have to give you a little test."

The firechief takes the mathematcian to the alley behind the fire department which contains a dumpster, a spigot, and a hose. The chief then says, “OK, you’re walking in the alley and you see the dumpster here is on fire. What doyou do?” 
The mathematician replies, “Well, I hook up the hose to the spigot, turn the water on, and put out the fire.”

The chief says, “That’s great... perfect. Now I have to ask you just one more question. What do you do if you’re walking down the alley and you see the dumpster is not on fire?”
The mathematician puzzles over the question for awhile and he finally says, “I light the dumpster on fire.”
The chief yells, “What? That’s horrible! Why would you light the dumpster onfire?”
The mathematician replies, “Well, that way I reduce the problem to one I’ve already solved.”

11) What did one math book say to the other? Don't bother me I've got my own problems!
