Well, in reality that would not require any symbols of any kind, it's just on a message board that you'd need the "^"...he could have spelled it out as "9 to the power of 9", I guess lol...

Ok, I'll say that you got the first one correct lol lol...It's a microwave oven. If you enter in 90 or 130, the oven will cook for the same amount of time: 1 minute and 30 seconds. mr.green

You're wrong on the other one, tho lol...

Three more...

1. What English word can have 4 of its 5 letters removed and still retain it's original pronunciation?

2. A woman goes into a hardware store to buy something for her house. When asked the price, the clerk replies, "the price of one is 12 cents, the price of 44 is 24 cents, and the price of 144 is 36 cents. What does the woman want to buy?

3. What device is designed such that whether you enter in the number 90 or enter in the number 130, it will perform in the exact same way?


Question 2: She's buying address numbers smile

1; How can a woman living in New Jersey, legally marry 3 different men without ever getting a divorce, be widowed, or becoming legally separated?

2. A snail is at the bottom of a well and wants to get out. He manages to crawl up the wall 3 feet each day, but at night he must rest ( after all that work during the day ) and so he slips back down 2 feet. If the well is 30 feet deep, How long will it take him to get out?

3. What belongs to you, but is mostly used by others?

13 - if she had the bad luck of pulling 6 left from each color what ever she picked out next would make a match.

99 - a guess

6 - he can smoke 5 and make one more from the butts of those

It's 9 to the power of 9...so a small 9 would appear just above the other nine. That combo of "two numbers" would end up equaling 387,420,489...which would be the largest number you could make using only two numbers. mr.green

I thought most women in Jersey were polygamists anyway! lol She is a person who marries people.

29 days. On the last one he pops out of the well and doesn't slip back down. Something like that.

Your name!
