Because it took me 10 minutes to figure this out. Some of you might of already heard this.. and because i'm just a tid bit bored.

Basically the riddle goes you give me any number and I can turn it into the number 4. What pattern am I using?

I'll give myself a number. Lets say the number 13.
13 is 8, 8 is 5, 5 is 4.


Another quick one, 29.
29 is 10, 10 is 3, 3 is 5, 5 is 4

Now I have a riddle.


Two men played chess.
They played five games.
Each man won three games.
There were no ties or replays.
How is this possible?

It doesn't have anything to do with subtraction, division, addition, or multiplication, think outside of the box. Any number you give me I can turn it into a 4.

My guess to your ridle flowergirlajg is, each man played 5 games?

12 is 6, 6 is 3, 3 is 5, 5 is 4.
19 is 8, 8 is 5, 5 is 4.
33 is 11, 11 is 6, 6 is 3, 3 is 5, 5 is 4.

I think that should show that I have it.

When they played chess, man one won. then man one won 2 of the 5 other games they played. And man two won the other three games.
each man wins 3. owned imo =)

and i also don't get the other one...explain it???

You count how many letters are in the number. For instance, 10. T-e-n thats three letters which makes that the number 3. T-h-r-e-e has 5 letters so that makes it 5. 5 has 4 letters, f-i-v-e which makes it the number 4.

Even, 38,917,816 would come out to be 4. That just takes WAY to long.

It's not even that complicated. The catch of the riddle is that it never says who the two men played against. So really, men 1 & 2 never had to actually play each other.
