seeing as it's puzzle day..

if a tennis ball tube holds 4 balls, how many do you have to put in to make it half full?

['Shabba']

I'm presuming 2 is too much of an obvious answer here???

[dj_jam]

the balls would be in it so, take 2 out.....

or that half full half empty theory.....summat...ish

[ilovepiano]

Is this about filling half the total volume of the tube? So you'd need more than 2 to half fill it, since there will be space between the balls. I'll guess three, coz I don't have time to work it out.

[*alicia*]

take all 4 out an put 2 back in coz then it will b half full
if u just took 2 out it wud b half emty
am i even close ?

Come on Gradwell!!!!!!

i'm guessing 4.

2 whole ones.

Half a one at the bottom 4 quadrants.
Half one at top 4 quadrants.
Then another full one in the middle bit.

BTW, this makes sense in my head.

lol top answer..i think but have nee got a clue what you're on about.

it's not a trick question, none of this half empty full stuff...and ILP is right, I'm talking about the volume of the tube..

he's actually got the answer right as well, not too impressed with the theory though, where's ya working out?

anyway it's 3, so now you know.

Just to try and clear it up a bit. Imagine taking a sliced view through my theory.

Now look at my iccle picie. Bit bored in work btw.

i think i'm with you...but wouldn't it have to be a square tube and not a round one?

nice pic btw

Is that a trick question, as in one of them isn't 5p - this one is a 2p, the other is a 5p.

If not, I haven't a scooby.
