30 bucks
 

three people check into 3 seperate hotel rooms
each room is ten dollars
they give the desk thirty dollars
the manager remembers todays special after they go to the rooms...five dollars off when renting three rooms
he gives the bellhop five dollars to return to the customers
the bellhop decides to make it easy on himself and give them each one dollar back, keeping two
each customer has now paid nine dollars per room
the bellhop has two dollars

9+9+9=27
27+2=29

where is the other dollar?

What was i just thinking of just now?

also, can we be sure of colours?

i see red as red, but if you could look thru my eyes and see red, you might see red through your eyes as green, or purple.

colours look that way to you but it might look TOTALY different to anybody else.

The sound of one hand clapping is "hello"

Do you walk to school, or carry your lunch?

Re: 30 bucks
 

not very unanswerable!
You don't add on the two the bellhop still has, you subtract it, to see how much the hotel recieves.
They paid: 9+9+9=27.
Bellhop kept $2 of this 27 for himself.
27-2=25
hotel manager gets $25.

pwnt.

The problem with that is, there aren't any unused portions ;)

That crap circulating a few years back about humans only using like 2% or whatever of their brains was extaly that, crap.

Functions have been attributed to every cm of brain tissue :)

I can answer that one! YES!! Didn't you see the "?" at the end? ;)

No it isn't nonsense, it's more zen, or perhaps more accurately, nonsense-zen. Anyway, any fool knows that the difference between a duck is that neither of its legs are both the same.

Here's my question:

Flawed logic there John!
MacGnG's stated that:
All questions end in a question mark.

He did NOT say:
Everything that ends in a question mark is a question.

how would you describe colors to someone blind since birth?

would he dream in color? (not really unanswerable, but i want to know the answer)

How do we know we're alive?

If you turn on the lights fast enough, can you see the dark?

Oh the irony. I didn't actually see that MacGnG had said that, therefore I had not made the logical error you refer to ( I believe it's called 'asserting the antecedent' for future reference). If I had made such an error, I would have made that post, but making the post does not mean that I made the error. Ergo, you have in fact asserted the antecedent in accusing me of doing so.

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

My question was not the small-minded bit of pedantry you assumed it to be, but in fact an attempt to post an unanswerable question which was not one of the tediously predictable reams of 'this statement is false' variations which this thread seems to have provoked. It was supposed to illustrate the importance of form and the requirement for information to be communicated in order that it be requested. The question with no meaning is a member of the set of questions with no answer and therefore a valid response to the thread title.

ahem. Just saw the post of mine that you were replying to CS and your error was completely understandable. Ergo I am an ass

:o :eek: :crazy:

So, how much wood could a woodchuck chuck, if a woodchuck could chuck wood? Hurry! We've got controlled chucking trials going on in the lab at this very moment, and we'll have the answer shortly... until then, its most certainly unanswerable :D

How many boards would the mongols hoard if the mongol hoardes got bored?

When exactly am I going to die?

a woodchuck would chuck as much wood as a woodchuck could chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood

If nothing is impossible, wouldn't it be impossible for something to be impossible?

If there are alien out there, what would they look like?

I don't think I saw it stated... if I'm wrong let me know...

But I can answer EVERY question with "Q"... just.. Q.. ;).. You never said the unanswerable question with the correct answer.. just unanswerable... I answer every question now with

Q!

imagine a color outside of the prism of human imagination.
what does it look like?
