What do you get?

5) If you are in a dark room with a candle, a wood stove, and a gas lamp. You only have one match so what do you light first?


Remember you must PM me your answer and you only have 1 guess. I will post the winner's name and the answer on an update.

Thanks and good luck

UPDATE:
AND THE WINNER IS: gobucks31


ANSWERS:
1) The answer is zero, because you can't have a triangle with sides measuring 14, 11 and 25 inches

2) Seven. The four daughters have only one brother, making five children, plus mom and dad

3) Mary (ALLOT OF PEOPLE ANSWER THIS WITH "NUNU")

4) 4100 (MOST PEOPLE ANSWERED "5000")

5) The match

Sure,

#3) Marys father has 5 daughters
1-Nene
2-Nini
3-Nana
4-Nono
5-Mary
#4) 2 x 1000= 2000
Add 10= 2010
Add 40= 2050
Add 1000= 3050
Add 30= 3080
Add 1000= 4080
Add 20= 4100

so with so math the grand total is 4100
