if you look at original puzzle like this its simple.


they pay £25 pounds between 3

which means 8.3333333333333333 each, add a pound onto that you get 9.33333333333333333

times by 3 you get 28

add 2 to the waiter and ur there

@all... thanks. i got that.. well it's just that different solutions with different ways of calculating the total amount to be 30 all seem logical. yet in the original puzzle the wordings seem flawless and very logical and somehow the more i read the original puzzle i seem to think that the calculation leading to 29 isn't flawed at all.

To the 1st riddle, 'language' doesn't end with 'gry' . . . The closest I guess would be the word - 'agree' , though spelled differently!

@k4m, how about "Silence" -- if you speak it the silence disappears.
