    A 30 year old man married a 25 year old woman. She died at age 50
    and her husband was so devastated that he cried for years. Ten
    years after he stopped crying, he died. If he had lived to be 80,
    how many years was he a widower?

    Well what Jess said makes sense.. but it didn't say how many years he was crying for.. it just said ten years after he stopped crying he died. So you don't actually know how many years he was crying for. What's the answer?

  • donna

    I agree with Jess.. if he was to die at 80 it would be 25 years a widower.. unless he remarried which is why he stopped crying, then would that make him an ex widower?

    Jess is right. She didn't say after he cried how long was he a widower. She just says "how long was he a widower?" So his wife died at age 50, making him 55. If he died age 80, he was a widower for 25 years.

    ^^ Yupp, yupp, I agree with Jess! =P Now we need another question! Lol..

    that isnt possible. what if he only cried for three years??? you dont tell how many years he cried... so if he only cried for three years he would be... um... 58!!! then ten years later he died and he was 68. i dont get it...

    Jess's answer was really good though...

  • ABrookeD

    It's not possible to figure out. You never said how long he cried for.

    "Ten years after he stopped crying"

    ^Well..it could mean 10 years..wow..i'm confused.

    What common English word, will describe a person or thing as not being found in any place and yet with no changes other than a space between syllables, will correctly describe that person or thing as being actually present at this very moment?
