Hint:
Fruit Shopping
I am at the local super-market buying fruits. An apple costs $1. An orange costs $9 more than the apple. A watermelon costs $5 more than the orange. If I buy one of each of these 3, what is the total amount I have to pay?
Hint:
$26
The cost of an apple is $1. Since it is mentioned that the orange is $9 more than the apple.
Cost of orange = $10; So cost of watermelon = $15
So if I buy all 3 the total I have to pay is; 1 + 10 + 15 = $26 Did you answer this riddle correctly?

He then says, "Divide these 100 marbles into these 2 bowls. You can divide them any way you like as long as you use all the marbles. Then I will blindfold you and mix the bowls around. You then can choose one bowl and remove ONE marble. If the marble is WHITE you will live, but if the marble is BLACK... you will die."
How do you divide the marbles up so that you have the greatest probability of choosing a WHITE marble?

This way you begin with a 50/50 chance of choosing the bowl with just one white marble, therefore life! BUT even if you choose the other bowl, you still have ALMOST a 50/50 chance at picking one of the 49 white marbles. Did you answer this riddle correctly?
