Hello, following on from that riddle post I'm gonna post some, heres the first one (i'm gettin these off a site) the first seems easy IMO, I haven' seen the answer though!

1.How many letters are in the alphabet?


That's a riddle?
Well, I'll say 11 seeing as it is a riddle ("the alphabet")

each pair of numbers describes the number before it

eg

1 is one "1"

11 is two "1"s

21 is one "1" one "2"

etc

Theres an tiny woman who lives on the 14th floor in a block of flats. When it rains she gets the lift right up to the 14th floor but when its not raining she has to get off the lift at the 7th floor and walk up the rest of the way.
Why is this?

lol good one, according to the site "He's lying. Even though he's lying when he says "everything" he says is a lie, some of the things he says can be a lie, and this is one of them. "

4.What state is surrounded by the most water?

5.A woman has 7 children, half of them are boys.

The answer to this is abit stupid in my opinion. "ALL the children are boys, so 1/2 half are boys and so is the other half. "
