Puzzles and riddles offer a great way to boost our mental performance and give our brain the exercise it deserves.
If you like taking on challenges that most people find too daunting, you’ll be happy to know we have the perfect set of brainteasers waiting for you below.
Once you’re ready to get started, take a close look at the picture below!
As you can see, the riddle places you 8 feet away from a door. Your job is to figure out how many moves it will take you to get to the door considering you only move half the distance each time.
Confused yet? Think about it this way. If your first move, you will pass four feet because four is half of eight. Then, you will pass half the distance again.
Have you figured out how this puzzle works yet? If your answer is 1, 2, or 3 moves, you are fairly mistaken. The correct answer is you will never reach the door!
If you’re still not sure how that is possible, grab a pen and try drawing the challenge on a piece of paper. Remember, you can only pass half the distance each time.

You can never reach the door because you will always move for only half of the remaining distance however small it may be.

This time, you have to figure out how much a pear is considering an apple is 40 cents, a banana is 60 cents, and grapefruit is 80 cents.
To solve this puzzle, you have to figure out what correlation exists between the fruits and their assigned prices. Does it have to do something with how they look like? Or perhaps something with the words themselves?
