This should be easy but try and answer in under thirty seconds to test how your brain works.

You’re in a running race and you overtake the runner in second place. What position in the race are you now ?

Another one to do quickly, try and take no more than thirty seconds.

In a lake the water lillies are doubling in number every day. If it takes 48 days to cover the whole lake, when will half the lake be covered ?

There’s a guy doing some decorating for me currently and we got chatting.

Turns out he was a Ryanair pilot but he’s been furloughed and is just trying to keep busy so thought he’d advertise his decorating skills.

Where did he finish before he went home today?

You come to a fork in the road. One road leads to certain death the other to the land of Fab and eternal happiness and endless sex. Two brothers are at the fork, one always lies, the other always tells the truth but you don’t know which is which.

You can ask each brother one question. What do you ask ?

A man tells a Census taker that he has three children. Their ages multipled together come to 72. Added together the number is the same as his house number.

The census taker checks the door number but still can’t guess their ages. The man tells her that his oldest child loves trifle. She immediately writes down the correct ages.

How old are the three children?

Finally! Clue: The type of dessert is irrelevant but it tells you he has an oldest child.

Your FabGodmother gives you five bags of gold coins and says you can keep one of them. Four contain real gold coins worth a fortune but one bags has fake gold coins worth nothing.

All the coins look identical but the fake coins weigh 1.1 grams each while the real gold coins weigh 1 gram each. You have an exact set of scales but can use it only once.

How do you weigh the coins to determine which bags contains the fakes ?

Take 1 coin from bag 1, 2 from bag 2 and so on. Based on how many dg are over will determine which bag has the real coins
