easy one
It is way too easy with the extra information. You should have just made it:
If it took 5 seconds for one popper to pop, many seconds would it take for 100 poppers to pop?
Either way, isn't this more of a trick question?
If it took 5 seconds for one popper to pop, many seconds would it take for 100 poppers to pop?
Either way, isn't this more of a trick question?
Sane, if he made it that way, then the normal person would think: "ok, so it took 5 seconds for one, then 5 times 100 will be 500 seconds for 100 poppers." i liked the teaser very much!!!! It got me!
This isn't even a riddle.
Kinda stupid, I think. Maybe I'm missing the cleverness, but this is one of the worst I've seen.
