A train is a half mile long and is about to enter a 10 mile tunnel. If the train is traveling at 35mph, how long will it take for the entire train to make it through the tunnel, from the front of the train entering to the end of the train leaving the tunnel?
18 minutes.
Length of the train: 0.5 miles Length of the tunnel: 10 miles Total distance: 0.5 + 10 = 10.5 miles
Time = 10.5 miles / 35 mph = 0.3 hours = 18 minutes

What is the answer to this problem?
1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 1 + 1 × 0 + 1 = ?
30.
There are two tricks to this one. The first is 1 × 0. But it’s mostly there as a distraction. Yes, 1 × 0 is 0, but that doesn’t affect anything else in the equation. The second, far trickier element is that the lines ending with 1 don’t have a + sign next to them. That means they should be combined with the following line.
Let’s put the equation all on one line, shall we?
1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 11 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 11 + 1 × 0 + 1 = ?
And the answer to that equation is 30.
