:O i got it, i'll PM you the answer, as to not spoil the fun :D Good riddle!

Answer to above!
Spoiler
The answer is "2". Count the number of looped circles in the actual numbers. For example "8" is two circles, so 8 =2, 9=1, 0=1 ect ect

Riddle #2
You find yourself wandering in a blizzard, it's dark, your hands are trembling..your eyes water from the freezing wind and snow.
Through the darkness you see what looks like the outline of a small cabin.. maybe it's just the shadows and snow playing tricks on you, but you make a trudging dash for it.
SUCCESS! It is a small hunting shack.. looks like someone must have left it empty decades ago.. Looking around to find anything to keep you warm, you see what might
be your last hope before you succumb to the elements.. A wood burning stove with one log left in its belly, A kerosene lamp with just enough oil left that you might be able to dig around this
old shack to find yourself something to warm your freezing limbs, and lastly a single, wilted filthy candle stands near a windowsill, its cracked and long burned down wick begging to be
rekindled.
You stand there, staring at the dim light that is filtering through the old buckled glass of the window and slide your hand into the pocket of your trousers. Even with numb finger tips you
know instantly what you've made contact with. A small match box. You eagerly pull it from your pocket, slide the packaging apart and there, staring back at you is a single red tipped match.
Your only hope for survival. You begin to slowly shift your sight around at the contents of the room.. with only one match remaining, your life completely hangs on this decision.. what will you light first?

Hi! I think I got the right answer:
Spoiler
Just once! Because when you subtract 5 to 25 , its no longer 25

#5 A petshop owner had a parrot with a sign on its cage that said "Parrot repeats everything it hears." A young man bought the parrot and for two weeks he spoke to it and it didn't say a word. He returned the parrot but the shopkeeper said he never lied about the parrot. How can this be?
