Well, the other answer was:

6 * 66 + 6 * 666 / 6 = 1062
396 + 3996 / 6 = 1062
396 + 666 = 1062
1062 = 1062
 
I snap my fingers 999 times. Next, I snap my fingers 729 times. Next, 126 times. Next, 12 times.

How many times am I going to snap my fingers next?

Dunno, 0 or 1 time?

wow.. this is tough one...
is this something to do with other formula than "+, -, *, /" ?

My guess is "3"
 
Soon... at midnight, my time... I'll reveal the answer.
 
Umm... *looks around* I fell asleep. Here's the answer:

2

Why? Look at the first number, 999. Multiply each number... 9 * 9 * 9 = 729. Multiply each number again... 7 * 2 * 9 = 126. Again... 1 * 2 * 6 = 12. And your answer... 1 * 2 = 2.
 
Using mathematic symbols ( +, -, *, / ), make six 6's equal 366. It doesn't matter how the 6's are arranged. It could be...

6 ? 6 ? 6 ? 6 ? 6 ? 6 = 366
66 ? 6 ? 666 = 366

It could be anything... good luck!
 
I guess everyone got bored with this thread because it's all numbers. I'm gonna try something different. Here you go:
A father names his first four children, in order of birth:

CARL, AMBER, MITCH, ISADORE

Each name progresses to the next using a rule. Which of the following names will the father give his next child?

SUSAN, MARVIN, ROBIN, JAKE

Susan is my answer... :)
 
Uh, wait a sec...the tiger and the quail answer doesn't make any sense. If the tiger throws the quail out of the cage, how is he going to eat them? They'll all just fly away. The tiger should carry in an object that weighs more than the combined weight of the quail. Then after he eats the quail, he should throw the object out the hole, and then squeeze back through the hole. Or, he could just leave the object in the cage.

Quails don't fly :)
 
Hey—she’s right. I just Googled it. So maybe it would work. But it would seem to me that the quail would take off running in all different directions. By the time the tiger got his ass back out the hole, they would be scattered everywhere, and he would have to run around like a chicken with it’s head cut off to catch them all. I still think it would be easier for the tiger to have lunch inside the cage.

Heh, it's true.. but hey at least he'll get lunch even if the tiger caught just one of them. And he'll come upon the others eventually. Yeah? And sure, it'd be easier for the tiger to have lunch inside the cage but he won't be able to leave... so...
 
But why couldn’t the tiger leave the cage? If the weight of the object is greater than the combined weight of the quail, and he leaves the object in the cage, then he would weigh less leaving the cage than when he entered, the sensor would not detect it, and the hole would remain open. Obviously, this would be pretty tricky—since the opening is just large enough for him to squeeze through. The object would have to be very small and dense, and it would have to be attached to his neck—the narrowest part of his body. I suggest that the tiger shave his neck, and duct tape a couple of bricks on either side. Or alternatively, he could just stick them where the sun don’t shine. Then after he is done eating, all he has to do is untape the bricks, and either throw them through the hole, or leave them on the floor of the cage. But all this is just getting too confusing for me. I’m going to go read the instruction manual for the toaster and see if I can figure out how to make it toast the bagels on the cut side only.
