30 and 30
Trick brain teasers appear difficult at first, but they have a trick that makes them really easy.
When is 30 plus 30 equal to 1?
Answer
In time!
30 seconds plus 30 seconds is 60 seconds. 60 seconds is one minute!

| I thought it was going to be, 30 divided by 30. I think that's a better choice. Maybe you should send in anotha like that cuz i don't have enough pointz to do it myself! By the way, who else thinks we should demolish the point thing? |

| Hmm... I know it's not the best teaser, but oh well! I still like it! (and whoever went to correct it, thanks! I hope it gets accepted) |

| Your welcome pop  (I tried to....)
It was rejected, as all my corrections seem to be. Try to correct it yourself, if you say "My Teaser" they seem to always accept..... 
Ohh well, good teaser pop  |

| I liked it. Unlike the other people, It stumped me that it wasn't 30/30, but it was 30 seconds plus 30 seconds. I thought that was a tricky answer, which made the more obvious choice to easy. You understand? Anyways, I gave you a medium for hardness because it was a little hard. Great teaser! |

| I like it how you have it Pop! It is the trickyness that makes it a good teaser. |

| I'm glad I wasn't the only one to think that the answer was 30/30. After I looked at the correct answer, I felt very silly.  |

| Am I the only one that had 30 minutes and 30 minutes = 1 hour?
Either way, I'm not 100% convinced this falls in the "trick" category. |

| Count me in the 30/30 group.
 I would never have thought about time. I'm temporally impaired. Time is a stranger to me. |

| 30+30=0 in time. 30 seconds + 30 seconds = 0 seconds (mod 60 seconds) |

| But 60 seconds is 1 (minute) |

| It time, you could have also answered 30 minutes plus 30 minutes equals 1 hour...
30/30 would make sense if the question was "30 and 30" not 30 plus 30. Good trick! |

| haha... I agree it could be 30 min PLUS 30 min = 1 hour....... When I first read it I just answered "never." It says when... |
