?? shouldn’t it be 491?
1 = hundreds digit
9 = tens digit
4 = ones digit
my brain hurts….
duuuuh
Uh if you can’t get this then you obviously can’t read.
Oh i get it now!!! The 4 is the ones digit!! The 9 is the tens digit!!! And the 1 is the hundreds digit!!! It goes the other way after the decimal!!!! duh!!!!
WHAT IS THAT ALL ABOUT????????????????
I didn’t quite understand the “riddle” part of this
ugggh dont try doing riddles really late at night… im sooo confused and my head hurts. lol
Brutal
Ugh hurts mt brain lol its late
it 194 you stupid heads
Hard to understand
Where the hell did 4 come from?
194??? Thats stupid no more like insaine
u fat ass
i figured it out without answer…i rock
that was kinda obv, but then again i’m a maths grad at Cambridge uni.
194
we can write 085 also
How is this a riddle? It’s a freakin math problem.
go back to school ‘add’…194
1 of hundreds is 100
9 of tens is 90
4 of ones is 4
so there you have one hundred and (a) ninety (and a) four.
That was not much tough. It was pretty easy
WTF!?!?
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????……. that sucked!?!
thats pretty wried, but it was kinda easy.
O.O

u arent very nice are you… u must b on of those school bullies going round lookin for dinner off people u Fatty!!!…
. anyway your the NUB!
answer this
the 1st, 2nd and 3rd digits are all the same. Together they make a three-digits number that is 70 less than the square of the first two digits..
plz hepl me…
Isn’t 419????
corz, the ones digit number count from the right and then comes up tends and hundreds
so it must be 419, not 194 !!!!
Correct???
NO, thats CORRECT 194.
damn. you people are stupid.
omg i hadn a clue and still dont
this was easy…i think
ok now i hav a brain freeze…mi brain hurts soo bad!i still dont get it lol
the answer is 194 and this is why:
you start with 1,2,3 and it wont work start with 4 you’ll get the right answer
this is how it works
5 more than 4 is 9 so far u have 094
8 less than 9 is 1 now u have 194
this is y this is y this is y im hot im hot cos im clever u aint cos u not!
LOL
Kewl i love riddles
for the person who wrote 084 it cant be cause that wouldnt be considered a 3 digit number people dont count 0 if it is in the hundreds place
couldnt it also be 205?
never tht of tht
hey my peoples this isn’t not riddle its a math problem and if anyone didnt get it right the first time they need to go back to pre skool cuz this was a way to easy and i emagine most of u people r older then 25 arent you’s? …….MORONS!!!!! GET LIFES ALREADY STOP LIVING NEXT TO YOUR COMEPUTER!!!
LLLLLLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVVVVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!! UUUUUUURRRRRRRRRR FFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNNYYYYYY JJJJJJJJOOOOOOOOKKKKKKKKKEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSS!!!!!!!
God Bless u always!
if u say 085 it wouldn’t work it would for starters be 083 and to make it count as 3 digits would have to be changed to a decimal .083
WTF THATS SO EASY! okay ima explain it, it says that the hundreds is 8 less than ten so that means that its either 8 or 9. if it was 8 it would be 0 and if 9 it would be 1. so the hundreds cant be 0 so its 1. that also means that the tens is 9 and it says the tens is 5 more than 1s so 9 – 5 =4
wow that was easy… and im only 12 -_-
I really did not get that one for a whill. that really stumped me.
after Trying hard i got the right ans. it’s 3 digit no., That could b 111 Or 999.
Let’s start with 999— As written- hundreds digit is 8 less than my tens digit. Means thousands digit is “1″ & tens digit is 5 more than ones digit. means ones digit is “4″……..
Ans is “194″……. Thank God Now i need a cup of coffee
