A basket contains 5 apples. Do you know how to divide them to 5 kids so that each one has an apple and one apple stays in the basket?
A girl who was just learning to drive went down a one-way street in the wrong direction, but didn't break the law. How come?
Why do Chinese men eat more rice than Japanese men?
What comes next?

Assume that penguins live with a density of 1,000 penguins per square mile and can run at an average speed of 7 miles per hour on land and swim at 20 miles per hour. Also assume that a polar bear has a territory of 10 square miles, can run at 25 miles per hour and swim at 10 miles per hour, how many penguins will an average polar bear eat in any given month, remembering that a polar bear could, as a maximum, only eat one penguin per hour and 7% of the land is next to the sea.

Lol, put one kid in the basket, then give him the apple.
Hmm....she was going do the street correctly, but her destination was the other way?

lol that's the most creative answer! You get points for that. I was looking for giving the kid the basket with the apple in it, but yours is better

I believe polar bears are vegitarians, no?

24 penguins/day * 30 days = 720 pengiuns (provided it didnt sleep or anything... i mean penguins can swim... can polar bears swim? (legitimate question)
all that other info seems extraneous. (ETA: i started to question that - are polar bears even carnivores?)

i didn't think polar bears and penguins lived in the same place, except the zoo.

For the win! Polar bears live in the Arctic, Penguins in the Anarctic.
They are definitely NOT vegetarians Alphafrog. In fact they're really the only bear that's completely carnivorous. Not a lot of vegetation up north. And they do swim, just not as well as penguins
That only leaves this one unanswered:
Why do Chinese men eat more rice than Japanese men?

Nope.
Hint: The question is not- "Why does a Chinese man eat more rice than a Japanese man"
