1. What are the only English words with three consecutive repeated letters. For example, sweet-toothed would be one (ee,tt,oo) if it weren't for the hyphen.

Bookkeeper and the related forms of the word, such as bookkeeping.

2. A man is six feet tall, is a clerk at a butcher shop, and wears size 11 shoes. What does he weigh?

He weighs meat. (These word play riddles and jokes are the toughest sometimes - especially for those who don't speak English as their first language.)

3. 75% can be written as 3/4. How would 58 1/3% be written as a fraction (when reduced to the lowest denominator)?

7/12. The easiest way to do this? 58 1/3% is 58.333.. out of 100. Multiply both the denominator and numerator by three to make them both whole numbers, and you have 175/300. Now just reduce this.

I object that only #2 is actually a riddle. The first one is a general knowledge question (and a quick search through the Scrabble word list confirms the answer); the last one is a maths question.

Agree with pjt33 (it's a joke). Or at least, you must say it's a word-riddle.
By the way, I only got Nr 3 right

I've heard #2 before, but I've never seen a butcher's shop with a clerk.
