I AM YOUR FOLLOWER IN THE LIGHT I AM INVISIBLE IN THE NIGHT I AM PRESENT IN THE SUN BUT NOT IN THE RAI RIDDLES WITH ANSWERS TO SOLVE - PUZZLES & BRAIN TEASERS

Light both ends of one rope, and only one end of the other rope. This will cause the first rope to burn out in 30 minutes. When the first rope burns out, there will be 30 minutes left on the second rope. So then, light the other end of the second rope, and the rest of it will burn out in 15 minutes. 30 + 15 = 45 minutes.

Current Future Past

Princess x 2z (x+y)/2
Prince y x z

I then created three equations, since the difference in their age will always be the same.

d = the difference in ages

x y = d
2z x = d
x/2 + y/2 z = d

I then created a matrix and solved it using row reduction.

x y z

1 -1 0 d
-1 0 2 d
.5 .5 -1 d

It reduced to:

x y z

1 0 0 4d
0 1 0 3d
0 0 1 5d/2

This means that you can pick any difference you want (an even one presumably because you want integer ages).

Princess age: 4d
Prince age: 3d

Someone bowled a strike. The ten white men are the pins, the dirt road is the bowling alley (its not dirt, but its the color of dirt, and if it said a smooth wooden alley it wouldnt be much of a riddle).

STEP 1: Divide it into sets of three. If you put one set on either side, it'll either equal the same, or you'll see which set is lighter. Either way, you narrow it down to three balls.

STEP 2: put two of the balls on the scale. If they're equal, the last ball is defective, but if not, the scale will tell you which one is lighter. Did you answer this riddle correctly?
YES  NO
