You have 15 marbles and a balancing scale. One marble is lighter than the others. Your teacher tells your class that the person who is able to find the lighter one in the least amount of tries wins 2 million dollars. What is the least amount of times you could use the scale to determine which one is the light one?
Answer: Only three times. First, you put seven marbles on each side of the scale. If they are equal then the marble left out is the lighter one. If not, then take the lighter side and put three of those marbles on each side of the scale. If the scale is level that means the marble left out is the lighter one. If not take the lighter side and put one marble on each side, if it is equal then the marble left out is the lighter one. If not then the side that is lighter is the marble you're looking for.

It was during the autumn season of last year when Ruth began seeing a psychiatrist due to "hallucinations" she said she was experiencing. Ruth had lived her entire life in the city but had moved far out into a very rural suburb near a forest, and close to a small pond. She reported to her psychiatrist she imagined seeing a large letter "V" in the sky one day while walking outside, as well as hearing numerous high-pitched voices she felt were trying to communicate with her. After that day, nearly every time she took a stroll outside, she would see the letter "V" up in the air, accompanied by the voices. Sometimes she reported sighting up to five of these "V" letters with the distant voices calling to her, during her daily outside walks. The psychiatrist thought for a moment, and then told Ruth she wasn't experiencing any hallucinations, but rather, was seeing ....? What did the psychiatrist suggest Ruth had been observing?
Answer: Having spent her whole life in the city, Ruth was not familiar with seeing flocks of geese (traveling in a "V" shape) heading south for the winter during the autumn season.

Riddle:
A Chess Board is sitting on the table in the middle of the room and then they play with three new rules, the rules are: You can move your pieces to any square that's not taken by an enemy piece at any time, if you have your king and an enemy piece is on your team. Also you may promote to any piece excluding the king. If you try to cheat against any of these or the other rules, you forfeit. Also the winner gets five dollars. You start to play as white and you're in the lead, you get you pawn to the other side and are allowed to promote it, the king is diagonal from your pawn though and can escape if you don't make you move correctly, if you do you will win. Behind the king 2 rooks stand blocking him from moving out of his row of squares. If you promote to a white bishop, the king can kill your piece, if you promote to a white horse, the king can kill your piece, if you promote to a white queen, the king can kill your piece. If you promote to a rook you tie. You promote your piece you are pronounced the winner, but the other player says you forfeit for cheating, but you states your rules and prove him wrong. What did you promote to, in order to win, and why did you win, without cheating?
Answer: Either a Black rook or a Black Queen. According to your rules, you could promote to any piece including a different color piece, now you have an enemy piece on your team you can, again according to your rules, teleport to any empty square and by moving next to your other two rooks aligned in their file, you checkmate the other person and get your five bucks. Maybe he should play by the normal rules next time.
