New here! No idea, but this one should be easy.
What does the Maker make,
But doesn't sell?
The Seller sell,
But doesn't buy?
The Buyer buy,
But never use?
And what does the User use,
But never see?
All of these questions have the same answer.
On the previous page, the marble riddle's answer is an egg. As for the other riddle, the one with the kids, the answer that I got is 6, 3, and 2. or it could be 12, 3, and 1. I'm gonna go with the last one.

Mine? No. It is very simple, but no one would ever guess it.

Twi666 As for the other riddle, the one with the kids, the answer that I got is 6, 3, and 2. or it could be 12, 3, and 1. I'm gonna go with the last one. Unfortunately that is wrong And the answer to yours is a coffin.

Dang it! For both of them, that is. Let me see.... If one of them plays the violin.... then that means that he/she must be at least 10 or so to play... But there is also (6, 6, and 1) (36, 1, and 1) (9, 2 and 2) (9, 4, and 1) and.... Dang.... there are too many possibilities. Does it have to be whole numbers?

Has to be a whole numbers and also you do not need to be at least 10 in order to play an instrument...
It does require some number crunching but it requires more logic than math.
They key point is that the guy needed more information in order to guess the ages.

Yes, and that info was his house number. They are all kids, so they can't be over 12. That means that one with 36 in it is out. That still leaves too many. I think that my head is gonna explode..... There is also 18.... wait that is too old..... Hmmmm.....
This is what I got:
12, 3, 1.
6, 6, 1.
9, 4, 1.
6, 3, 2.
9, 2, 2.
3, 4, 3.
This is it. The answer has to be one of these.

I think that my head is gonna explode..... There is also 18.... wait that is too old..... Hmmmm..... This is what I got: 12, 3, 1. 6, 6, 1. 9, 4, 1. 6, 3, 2. 9, 2, 2. 3, 4, 3. This is it. The answer has to be one of these. It is definitely one of those. So here is the thing. The guy needed more information after seen the house number which meant that that he had the same result with at least 2 operations. 12+3+1=16, 6+6+1=13, 9+4+1=14, 6+3+2=11, 9+2+2=13, 3+4+3=10. So if the house number was either 16, 14, 11 or 10 then the guy wouldn't have asked for more info. Hence, the house number had to be 13. 6+6+1=13, 9+2+2=13. Since he cannot randomly pick, he was told that the oldest one played the violin so there had to be an older one. Therefore, the result has to be 9, 2 and 2. Hope you guys/girls had fun trying to figure out this one =)

I have another one but this one isn't nearly as hard.
Mike and David were playing with some marbles and Mike turns around and tells David.
-If you give me one of your marbles we both will have the same amount.-
So after some thinking David says - And if you give me one of yours I will have twice as much as you.
How many marbles did the have?

OMG! I LOVE ALGEBRA. LOL heart
DAVID = D | MIKE = M
Mike has 5 marbles && David has 7 marbles.
Mike says: "if you give me one of your marbles I we both have the same amount."
D - 1marble = M + 1
D = M + 1 + 1
D = M + 2
David says: "&& if you give me one of yours, I will have twice as much as you."
D + 1 = 2 * (M-1)
D + 1 = 2M - 2
D = 2M - 3
-----
so i general. if we try to look at the equations. 2M - 3 = M + 2 --> transpose M to the other side & 3 to the other. w/c makes 2M - M = 3 + 2 M = 5 ---------------------------- David gets 7 & Mike gets 5. - mike gives 1 marble then he'd be 4 & david 8 - david gives 1 marble then he'd be 6 & mike 6 also.

What force and strength cannot get through,
I with a gental touch can do,
And many in the street would stand,
Were I not a friend at hand.

xd yes.
Next Riddle:
Only one colour but not one size,
Stuck at the bottom, yet easily flies,
Present in the sun, but not in the rain,
Doing no harm, feeling no pain.
