nice
 .most of these riddles have been going for a while, heres one you wont find on the net. ************************* 5 + 5 + 5 = 550 by adding only one line to this equation how can you make it valide. ex: / \ - | ************************** the answer is not by drawing a line on the equal sign and saying that 5 + 5 + 5 is noequal to 550. <--smart but not the answer

i think i figured out the coin thing.
take one coin out of the first bag, two coins out of the second , three from the third and so on and 10 from the tenth. when you weight all the coins you removed, if your off by 3 grams then you know it was the third bag, if you off by 7 grams then it was the seventh bag. i hope thats the answer makes sense in my head and it was prettty cool

The "/" (or a slanting line) is used to connect the top and left corners of the "+" sign so as to make it 4. Hope you got it... Rajesh Sivaraman.

hmm.. I insist that this is not a 4..
It doesn't even look like a 4.. It might could be a riddle in a paper...
