Riddle:
One day, a King asked his advisers, "What should I do if someone touches my mustache ( mustaches are a sign of power)?" The first adviser said, "He should get his hair cut off and be hung." The second one said, "He should be stoned to death." The third, being the most clever of them all, said, "He should be given sweets." This shocked the advisers and the King.

Riddle:
David is throwing Robert a surprise birthday party but he has to stay within his budget. He spent half of his money plus $2.00 on the cake. Half of what he had left plus $2.00 was spent on balloons and streamers. Then he spent half of what he had left plus $1.00 on candy. Now he is out of money, how much did he start with?
Answer: This one is best solved working backwards, the last part David spent half of what was left plus $1.00 on candy and then was out of money. That means he must have spent $2.00 on Candy as $1.00 was half of what he had using the same logic backwards: $2.00 on candy $6.00 on Balloons and Streamers $12.00 on the cake Total of $20.00.
