There are 2 ducks in front of 2 other ducks.
There are 2 ducks behind 2 other ducks.
There are 2 ducks beside 2 other ducks.

How many ducks are there?


As an added bonus, if you get the one above and the bonus one below correct, there will be 1000 casino credits in it for you!

How can half of 12 be 7?



Send me your answer in a PM, then post here for credit....if you can answer this one!

Good luck!

Alright, the answers from this week were:

4 ducks

Cut XII in half and you get VII

But I will also accept,
Using base twelve, half of 12 is 7
(1x12)+(2x1)=14.
14/2=7

Correct answers were given by: OTTF, Diluted, dart1963, mfischler, and sldwys87. Those of you who go the bonus correct are now 1000 casino credits richer. :steve:

That's how you should draw it. There was no requirement that the ducks could not rotate to look at the other ducks. The top 2 ducks are in front of the bottom 2 ducks. The bottom 2 ducks are behind the top 2 ducks. The left 2 ducks are beside the right 2 ducks (or vice versa).

thats what I was thinking..
a = 2 ducks beside 2 other ducks (c)
b = 2 ducks in front of 2 other ducks (c)
c = other ducks
d = 2 ducks behind 2 other ducks (c)

I need to think outside of the box :banghead:

Actually, for this one you needed to think INSIDE the box....
