Clear. Most greenhouses are made from glass or plastic, not bricks.

What types of animals can jump higher than a house?

Pretty much anything but a snake. Houses can't jump very high.

Three buddies on spring break stop by an old hotel. The clerk charges them $30 for the room; the travelers pay $10 each.
Later that evening, the hotel manager realizes the clerk overcharged the three buddies - the room should have been $25. He gives the clerk five singles and tells him to give them to the buddies.
On the way to the room, the clerk thinks, "There's no way to split five dollars evenly between three people. I'll just give them three dollars, pocket two, and nobody will know the difference." He does so.

Here's the riddle:

Each traveler originally gave $10, then got a dollar back, so they paid $9 each. 3 X $9 = $27; the clerk kept $2. $27 + $2 = $29; where did the other dollar go?

Re: Riddle Game!
 
their is no other dollar. Why would you ADD $2 to the $27 the three men paid? You subtract that & get the $25 the motel keeps. That $2 is the what the clerk skimmed for himself.

Rachel and David are twins; Rachel is the OLDER twin. Assume they were born immediately after each other, an infinitesimally small - but nonzero - amount of time apart. During a year in the course of their lives, Rachel celebrates her birthday two days AFTER David does. How is this possible?

Billfred 23-10-2007 15:08

Re: Riddle Game!
 
Rachel was born at 11:59 PM on February 28, while David was born at 12:01 AM on March 1. Every four years, leap day breaks that up.
