The bear is white. Since all the walls of the house are facing south, you can conclude that the house is located on the North Pole. Hence, the bear is most likely a polar bear.
Imagine the following: you are walking through the woods and a huge bear is going to attack you. You are running for your dear life, but he is getting closer and closer...
How can you escape from the bear?
A doctor and a bus driver are both in love with the same woman - a beautiful girl named Monica. The bus driver had to go on a long bus trip that would last a week. Before he left, he gave Monica seven apples. Why?
Trains travel from one town to another town all day, always on the same track, always going nonstop and at the same speed. The noon train took 80 minutes to complete the trip, but the 4 PM train took an hour and 20 minutes. Why?
I am a word that begins with the letter “i.” If you add the letter “a” to me, I become a new word with a different meaning, but that sounds exactly the same. What word am I?
Today is more windy than yesterday, will a return flight take the same time, less time, or the same amount of time to complete?

Let's do a worked example. Lets say our plane has to travel 300 miles there and 300 miles back. It has a standard cruising speed of 600mph. In the case of no wind it will travel the 600 miles in 1 hour exactly. Simple enough. Let us say that the wind speed is 100mph so the plane will be wind assisted to 700mph and slowed to 500mph - Wind Assisted: 300 miles at 700mph takes 0.429 hours - Wind Slowed: 300 miles at 500mph takes 0.6 hours - Total Time: 1.029 hours
Take two numbers, such that the square of the first, plus the square of the second, shall equal 8; while the first, plus the product of the first and second, shall equal 6. What are the two numbers?
