How about 2/29?

Should the question be "... was 19 day before yesterday, will be at 22 next BIRTHDAY. What's her DOB?"?

Have a nice day.

A person of 2/29 birth date can never be 22.
22 is not a multiple of 4.

what man?, and you wanted to change the question. Great

yJay,

in mathematics, it matters. If someone says that 2+ 2 = 6, you ought to correct the person. In stead of agreeing to the mistake, please don't justify to what you wrote. You gave a very very wrong answer and it was my duty to correct it. Think that if you ask this riddle in a party and then get embarrassed by a 4 year old.

I won 2 times the Mathematician Of the country award. So,could not see your answer which was sooooooooooooooo wrong.

But unfortunately the answer is wrong
Let me give it to you
It is 1113213211

Starting with the second line, every line describes the line before it, In writing, ie:

One
One One
Two Ones
One Two One One
Three Ones Two Twos One One
One Three One One Two Twos Two Ones

And The Last line

One One One Three Two Ones Three Twos One One
-1-----1----1-----3-----2-----1------3-----2-----1-----1--

You can go on forever
Wish you all the best

I think your illustration is incorrect. Are you missing an entry to the series? Also, the pattern abruptly changes as the series goes on...
1
11
21
1211
3112 <---- seems logical here (or, 1231)
211213 (or 132231)

how about this?
1
11
21
1211
111221
312211
13112221
1113213211

One
One One
Two Ones
One Two One One
Three Ones Two Twos One One <--- does not describe the line before it. There are no two two's

One Three One One Two Twos Two Ones <-- changes the order of description.

And The Last line

One One One Three Two Ones Three Twos One One
-1-----1----1-----3-----2-----1------3-----2-----1-----1--

You can go on forever

july16, One of the Big 5 and the world's largest consulting firm, PricewaterhouseCoopers changed their name to Monday!
 
Monday & PwC

Yeah! I was teasing my friend who works for that company. I think she wished for me to disappear from the face of this planet...hehehe!
 
Monday & PwC -- part deux

Sprint PCS Salesperson: Why did you change the name to Monday?
PwC MD: I was away playing golf and when I was conferenced in, I told them we'll name it "on" Monday!
Sprint PCS Salesperson: Ahh...You got cellular!


Note: As silly as that sounds, it is not my joke. This was found pasted near one of the watercoolers according to reliable sources in PwC.
