wes. 0 #1 November 7, 2006 a man lives on the 16th floor of a building, every morning he catches the lift from to the ground but in the evening when he returns he only catches the lift to 10th floor why is this? when asked 90% of ages 10 and below got the answer but only 40% og ages 10 and up could get it EDIT: while i was writing this ive noticed a problem with it but see if you can match the answer in the book.Falling from the top floor your lungs fill like parachutes Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Peej 0 #3 November 7, 2006 He's a midget and can only reach the button for the 10th floor. He has to walk the rest of the way. edited to add: 10 year olds and less are short, that's why they get it Advertisio Rodriguez / Sky Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep! thats what the bok says but, in a lift the lower numbers are at the top and the higher numbers at the bottem so he is more likily to be able to reach 16 but not the ground floor buttonFalling from the top floor your lungs fill like parachutes Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
