I know the answers. I sloved those questions. Let's see if you can slove them too.
1. Once two mothers and two daughters were walking at the forest and then they found 3 apples. Each one of them ate only 1 apple. How is it possible?
2. once there was a lake and a lily in it. In year 2000 the lily was putten in the lake. The lily doubled her size every year. in year 2010 the lily covered all the lake. In what year the lily covered half of the lake?

The first answer is wrong.
The second answer is right.
I give you two 68.
Sorry but it means you are not smarter than me. Better luck next time.
The first answer is:
There is:
One grandma=one mother
+
One mother=one mother, one daughter
+
One daughter=one daughter
=
One grandma, one mother, one daughter=two mothers and two daughters.
In other words: The grandma is the mother of the mother, the mother is the mother of the daughter and the daughter of the grandma and the daughter is the daughter of the mother.

No peregants! You did'nt invent this question and you can't decide it's true because it's not! And how can a baby in her mother's belly can walk?  |

As a matter of fact, I did invent this question and I knew exactly what I am talking about. It is not my fault everyone always screws it up.

I didn't get the first one right on first try, but that by no means dictates you being more intelligent than me, because I doubt you could even solve a quadratic equation.

Did he say I am not more intelligent than him? I beg to differ. Logic puzzles are not true indicators of intelligence.
I agree with Matt, I highly doubt you can do some of the things I can do!
- Karma for you, from me!

By the way I have another question:
3. Once there was a jar and 1 jerm in it. every minute 1 jerm turns into 2 jerms. In the 60th minute all the jar was filled with jerms. In what minute the jar was filled with jerms if in the start there were 2 jerms instead of 1 jerm?
I got this question in 4th grade and I sloved it easily.

3. The 59th minute. P.S. Why won't anyone answer my riddles? |

3. The 59th minute. P.S. Why won't anyone answer my riddles? And you're right! I tried the Einstien riddle and I took a break in the 30th minute. I also tried the first riddle but it was TOO hard... |

Yes! I brought my average grade up to 66%! XD But, I still think that answer was right, as you didn't specify that no one could be pregnant. Also, you shouldn't go around saying you are smarter than other people... they don't like that... Anyway, thanks for trying to answer my riddles.  I will add some hints in my first post and two more easier riddles in my second post. |

YW!
If you read the question correctly you understand that no pergnants.

Well, the answer really depends of what you see as walking with someone. You can say "My wife and my baby went out walking", for instance, eventhough the baby is carried by your wife and so litterally isn't walking. The same counts for a pregnant woman, so BuffyBoy's answer is correct, though not if you interprete the question literally.
Besides, saying that people are smarter or not smarter than you can be a little offensive, though I don't think you meant it that way. You can't determine anyones smartness using simple questions.

Matt, quadratics are EASY. That is, if I'm remembering what they are correctly. Besides that, comparative intelligence is hard to work out because everyone's brain works differently (male and female brains more so than two men or two women). I doubt anyone here could tell me what notes make up the chord C augmented, or C diminished 7th - but that knowledge doesn't necessarily make me inherently smarter.
(C E G#, and C Eb Gb A btw)
