1. Why can't you take a picture of an Indian woman with hair curlers?
2. What is the largest possible number you can write using only 2 numbers - just 2 numbers, no other mathematical symbols?
3. What English word can have 4 of its 5 letters removed and still retain its original pronunciation?
4. If there are 5 apples on the counter and you take away 2, how many do you have?
5. A snail is at the bottom of a well and wants to get out. He manages to crawl up the wall 3 feet each day, but at night he must rest (after all that work during the day) and so he slips back down 2 feet. If the well is 30 feet deep, how long will it take him to get out?
6. If a snail crawls halfway around a circle then turns around and crawls halfway back, is it now back where it started?
7. What common chemical compound is represented by the letters H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O?
8. What belongs to you, but is mostly used by others

Hi! These are answers for your questions!
1) 99
2) Because hair curlers aren't cameras.
3) Queue
4) I have 2 apples.
5) 28 days... The snail averages 1 foot each day, so after 27 days, he has reached 27 feet. On the 28th day, he crawls up 3 feet during the day, but since he is now at 30 feet and out of the well, he no longer slips back 2 feet.
6) No, it crawls halfway around the circle, but halfway back is only 1/4 of the return trip (half of a half).
7) H2O = water
8) Your Name!
Regards,
V. Raga Sudha :-P
