NO! It's strange that you don't know – it's an old riddle!

A mega-problem!
Given a snail and a pole.
The pole is 10 meters high.
During the day, the snail climbs 5 meters.
At night, it slides down 4 meters.
Question: how many full days will it take for the snail to climb the pole?

I think it should be 6 =) unless there was a miscalculation.

Tengro, Sirko already answered this riddle an hour ago. But you're just kidding, right?

Tengro waited – for 6 full days (or 7 – depending on when the snail started crawling: in the morning, afternoon, or evening!).

This is a well-known problem, and even the greatest mathematicians are still trying to solve it! :)

A rooster has 6, a cat and a dog have 3, so how many does a donkey have?
I think a donkey has four. A rooster has 5 letters (not 6), a cat (kot) has 3 letters, and a dog (pes) also has 3 letters. I can't think of anything else. Nothing about the appearance of these animals seems to fit the description. Most often, in such riddles, either the number of common letters in the words or the total number of letters in the words is compared.
p.s. Celt, answer this riddle already.

Here is an old riddle on a rather unpleasant topic: It has wings but is not a bird, it sucks blood but is not a vampire.
