Umm... okay. Kaldric Send a noteboard - 11/05/2010 05:27:37 PM
I got this in an e-mail from my mom today. Figured I'd send it on to amuse y'all. I'm sure some of you won't find it hard at all. I will post the answer, but it'll be hidden!!! And I won't tell you how you get the answer, either.

Try to solve this puzzle, before you open the attachment
Apparently only people with an IQ over 120 are able to figure it out ... Keep your brain active and think about it:

if
2 + 3 = 10
7 + 2 = 63
6 + 5 = 66
8 + 4 = 96
Then:
9 + 7 = 144


I expected it to be a lot harder. (N1 + N2)*N1 = N3

P.S. The "NSSP" is implied.

Of course, [Quixote] carried it a bit too far. He thought that every windmill was a giant. That's insane. But, thinking that they might be...

I despise these sorts of problems (spoiler) - 09/05/2010 09:38:41 PM 834 Views
that is correct (now no looking ahead, cheaters ) *NM* - 09/05/2010 09:43:35 PM 378 Views
Based on the view count I would say at least half the people have decided to cheat *NM* - 09/05/2010 09:52:42 PM 375 Views

Oh yeah. - 09/05/2010 10:08:48 PM 768 Views
Not bad. Try this one. - 09/05/2010 10:21:42 PM 798 Views

That's going to bug me for ages now. - 09/05/2010 11:48:07 PM 716 Views
It is a lot harder, and you probably are . - 09/05/2010 11:53:26 PM 738 Views
You would need a good base in math to figure it out. *NM* - 10/05/2010 12:03:09 AM 398 Views
That... that was either brilliant or terrible. *NM* - 10/05/2010 12:10:12 AM 336 Views
It was a definite hint. - 10/05/2010 12:26:41 AM 740 Views
*NM* - 10/05/2010 12:25:03 AM 360 Views
Yeah, probably 99.9% of people won't get this, but it has less to do with patterns I think (spoiler) - 10/05/2010 12:21:06 AM 731 Views
This is correct. (spoiler obviously) - 10/05/2010 12:25:02 AM 706 Views
Right. I guess I might've found that eventually. - 10/05/2010 12:29:57 AM 740 Views
I never like base change ones, let me see if I can remember one... - 10/05/2010 01:28:06 AM 770 Views
To save confusion, anyone who gets that just give it in base 10 *NM* - 10/05/2010 01:52:45 AM 386 Views

Wow. I though the answer would be - 10/05/2010 09:22:15 PM 704 Views
Re: I hated this stuff in school, and always skipped it. - 10/05/2010 06:59:02 PM 743 Views
The one you got was poorly written. - 10/05/2010 01:37:26 AM 778 Views

Easy stuff - 10/05/2010 03:15:55 AM 920 Views
Ths is not a logic problem. It's a puzzle. - 10/05/2010 02:33:19 PM 627 Views
Re: No no, there's a definite pattern. - 10/05/2010 06:50:01 PM 644 Views
ok, how do you analyze the problem? - 10/05/2010 08:08:21 PM 762 Views
Re: ok, how do you analyze the problem? - 10/05/2010 09:14:48 PM 662 Views
