In my dining room, I have a triangular table which has sides of 62, 37, and 24 inches. I also have napkins which measure 6 inches square. How many napkins will it take to completely cover the table ?
can you unfold the napkins?Quote:

can i just do that and someone else can figure it out then? :P
what i was trying to say was could you unfold one napkin to increase its area 2 or even 4 times?
:D Certainly. I'm not being sarcastic, by the way, it was more of a hint than anything. For example, you can turn the napkins back into pulp if you like. :)Quote:

Longer riddle:
A man was hired to mow the grass. He took the lawn mower
out of the shed and went out. Soon he went back.
He said, "I cannot mow all that grass out there. That grass is
a hundred feet high."
He was telling the truth but how would this be possible?

With this one, several people may answer:
Ten parts of the human body can be spelled with just 3 letters.
Name them all.
Again, please give others a chance and only post answers to 2 max.
