Guest Posted December 16, 2007 Report Share Posted December 16, 2007 the reason there were no pears on the ground is easy.it was winter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 They fell into a basket. Thus they no longer exist on the trees, or on the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 Different tree. The pear tree was only 1 of the few trees mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 The tree could be planted next to a lake. Then all of the pears would be blown into the water, which is neither on the ground nor in the tree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 six pages of answers and no mention of a partridge in a pear tree? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 it could also just be that the pears are somewhere else. like somewhere imbetween rather then the ground (so an object) or the peartree. like Guish said water could do it. Or maybe it was picked by the person who owned the tree since he didnt want to lose his pears during the storm. um... so could like Pears simply mean there was more then one on the tree right, but the end of the riddle it said no "PearS" were on the ground or the tree, so it could simply mean its not plural anymore right. Afterall there might be only one pear on the tree and only on the ground. then it would still make sense correct?? Or does that not make sense. I mean it could just be that. Actually a ton of things could of happened. Right so almost anything works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 the pear tree, in the garden, is on the edge of a cliff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 29, 2008 Report Share Posted January 29, 2008 So simple. They are on the roof of the house(s) that are under the trees branches Yes, that could be ture or somebody came along hungry and ate them all. everybody rules out the very simple!

Guest Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 (edited) I have an answer. The strong wind broke off the branch with all of the pears on it. The branch falls to the ground, but it lands so that the pears are still lifted off of the ground. Pears not in tree, pears not on ground, problem solved.

Guest Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 hi people.. i dont think anyone got it right.... the right answer is,there were no pears on the trees..the problem is simple...there was a pear tree,,but due to logic conclusion it is obvious there werent any pears on the trees when the wind blew...

Guest Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 What if there was only 1 pear in the tree to begin with?no pears, just pear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 but there werent any pears on this tree...there was no mention of pears,but if your making a new puzzle to solve,i'd say the pear was floating on simply water surrounding the tree..

Guest Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 everybody who keeps saying there are no pears have not read the riddle correctly it states there are "neither pears" on the ground or in the tree so therefore there could be a pear in each place but not more than one!!!! (the plural factor gets you here) so when i read that there were 2 pears (not pairs) to begin with it made a perfectly logical explanation for the riddle... well to me anyways....

Guest Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Pears - Back to the Logic Puzzles There are a few trees in a garden. On one of them, a pear tree, there are pears (quite logical). But after a strong wind blew, there were neither pears on the tree nor on the ground. How come? Pears - solution At first, there were 2 pears on the tree. After the wind blew, one pear fell on the ground. So there where no pears on the tree and there were no pears on the ground. Another possible solutions: The wind blew so hard that the pears fell of the tree and blew along the ground into the water or hovering in the air in a tornado. Yeah you cant just add stuff at the end, first of all if one pear fell but there were two then one should still be in the tree. oh yeah and if one is on the ground then how can all of a sudden there be none on the ground, but then none in the tree when just one fell, seriously its lame. I think you confused yourself, they say the apple doesnt fall to far from the tree I dont think pears do either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you confused yourself, they say the apple doesnt fall to far from the tree I dont think pears do either. imagine this: tree with 2 pears, ground with no pears ... then wind blew tree with 1 pear, ground with 1 pear - there are not pears on the tree and there are not pears on the ground I might draw a picture if that is still too complex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 Maybe the people that the tree belonged to came outside and pick them both before the strom got there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 they r in a basket it doesnt specify where the pears are in the question Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 I believe that it is that their is one Pear on the tree and one Pear on the ground therefore there are no pairs. This riddle works best when spoken due to the fact that pear and pair are homonyms. It is like this riddle/joke You have 20sick sheep, when spoken aloud it sounds like you are saying you have 26 sheep, one dies how many are left? since it is written down that i said you have 20 sick sheep you would know the answer is 19. However if you say this aloud to someone they would most likely answer 25 because 20 sick sheep sounds a lot like 26 sheep sorry No avatar and no cool slogan but soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Have any of you ever heard of a "fruitarian"? Well, apparently it's like a vegetarian, but they eat only fruit. And the deal is they believe than as long as the fruit is still on the tree, it belongs to the tree. But, if the fruit is on the ground, it belongs to the earth. So these people stand around under fruit trees waiting for the fruit to fall 'cause it's the only way they can justify taking the fruit. So my solution suggests that there are a bunch of fruitarians standing under this particular tree during this wind storm. What do you think? Plausible?

Guest Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 a strong wind blew and there were no pears on the ground or the tree becuz there was one pear on each and pear obviously is different then pears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 21, 2008 Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 Y CAN'T U JUST SAY THAT THE PEARS WERE BLOWN INTO THE OTHER TREE?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 The Pears could have smashed into a wall and made marmalade. So there would be marmalade on the wall, and no pears on the ground or tree. OR They could have been blown into a neighboring tree. I WAS THINKING THE VERY SAME THING...LOL... WHICH WOULD BE A LOT EASIER TO SOLVE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
