Ok let's go with a relatively easy one:

There's a creature which doubles its size every day. If the creature is put in a tank, it'll fill it in 10 days. How long does it take for it to fill the 1/4th of it and how long does it take to fill the half of it?

It's better to be silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt. What's even better is to weaponize your words to destroy anyone who dares challenge you.

the anwer is 8 days to fill 1/4 and 9 days to fill half, which will result in filling it completely in 10 days.
