Hint:
The Day Before Yesterday I Was 25 Riddle
The day before yesterday I was 25 and the next year I will be 28. This is true only one day in a year. What day is my birthday?
Hint:
On carefully inspecting this question, one can understand that there are two days which are important and these are:
A. My Birthday.
B. The day when I am making this statement.
If you think for a while, you will understand that such statements can be made only around the year's end. So, if my birthday is on 31 December, then I will be making this statement on 1 January.
I will further explain using the following example:
1. Consider that today is 01 January 2017.
2. Then, the day before yesterday was 30 December 2016 and according to the question I was 25 then.
3. Yesterday was 31 December 2016, which happens to be my birthday too (Woohoo!), and my age increases by one to become 26.
4. I will turn 27 on my birthday this year (31 December 2017).
5. I will turn 28 on my birthday next year (31 December 2018).
Now, if you read the question again, it will make more sense:
The day before yesterday(30 December 2016), I was 25 years old and next year(31 December 2018) I will be 28. Did you answer this riddle correctly?
YES NO

Four Days Of School Riddle
A student has missed an excessive number of days at school and thus the principal called him to his office and requested for an explanation.
The student said, There just isnt enough time for school. I need 8 hours of sleep a day, which adds up to about 122 days a year. Weekends off is 104 days a year. Summer vacation is about 60 days. If I spend about an hour on each meal, thats 3 hours a day or 45 days a year. I need at least 2 hours of exercise and relaxation time each day to stay physically and mentally fit, adding another 30 days.
Add all of that up and you get about 361 days. That only leaves 4 days for school.
The principal is confused, but cant figure out why. What is wrong with the students argument?

Hint:
The student is double counting a lot of the days. A lot of the time spent sleeping, eating, and relaxing occurs during weekends and the summer. Weekends also occur during the summer, so all of these hours are getting counted several times.
And, school is not an all day affair. So the 4 days actually represents more days of school. If school is 6 hours per day, those four days represents 16 days of school. Did you answer this riddle correctly?
YES NO
