Each (day + night) he moves 1 foot closer to the top.

After 14 (day + night)'s, he is 14 feet closer to the top = 3 feet from the top.

On the 15th day, he climbs 3 feet, reaches the top, falls out on the ground, and expires from starvation.

15 days.

A snail is at the bottom of a well 30 feet deep it crawls up 3 feet each day but at night it slips down 2 feet how long does it take for the snail to creep out of the well?

Answer in my opinion 29 days. At the beginning of the 28th day the snail is 27 feet up. The snail crawls up 3 feet and is now at the top of the well but not out. At the beginning of the 29th day, the nail is 28 feet up. He now crawls up 3 feet and is out. This is some question about the interpretation of the problem. At the end of the 28th day, the snail is at top and would crawl out, I think.


What falls but doesn't break and breaks but never falls?

Night falls, as in the expression meaning "night is approaching", but it doesn't break, as "night" is an abstract noun. And day breaks, as in the expression "daybreak", meaning the time of day during which the sun first appears. However, "day", as well, is an abstract noun and cannot literally fall.
