Impossipuzzles Who am I? 1 John slipped on a marble and nearly fell. “One of yours?” he asked his son, holding up the offending object.

“It must be, Dad,” replied Harry. “Yesterday I had 45 altogether. Reds, blues and greens. If the blues had been red, I would have had twice as many reds as greens, but if the reds had been green, I’d have had one more green than blues.” You work it out! 2 “No rain for three months,” said old Jake.

“Terrible! You say you lost some cows and seven pigs,” remarked Ken. “How many animals did you lose in all?“ “Well,” replied the farmer, “there were those and also two horses less than the number of cows I lost. That’s right, thirteen beasts dead.” How many cows did he lose? 3 “A new teacher, eh?” said Mary. “Is he younger?“

Cathy grinned. “Come on, Mummy. He told us we can work out his age ourselves. If you take 6 from it, and then add 6 to its first digit, you get twice his age.” So how old was he?

4 I know a young chap from Japan.

Just figure his age if you can. One less than the square Of its first digit there Is a third of the age of that man. 5 The security guard had been standing in the shop watching the customers as they came in. “They all get those toffees at 6 pence an ounce,” he commented. “You must have sold ten pounds of them while I’ve been here.”

“Less than that,” replied Sam. “But it’s funny the way they’ve gone. Pound for pound, and penny for ounce, I’ve taken exactly the same as the total weight sold.” How much was that? 6 When Roy was as old as Betty was when Roy was half as old as Betty will be when Roy is a year older than Betty is now, Betty was as old as Roy was when Betty was as old as Roy is now.

We have taken ages in complete years, of course, and Roy is in his teens. How old is Betty?
