Answer: here’s the value you’re looking for in the third equation
At first sight, you’ll probably say that this is child’s play. And if you’re methodical, you’ll certainly beat the record. Refer back to solving linear systems if you’re familiar with them. Grab a small piece of paper and a pen and you’ll be able to find the answer quickly. The answer to this riddle is 17. To find the result of the last equation, you need to proceed step by step. You need to determine the value of each flower:
- The cup of coffee is worth 10,
- The heart is worth 10,
- The chocolate bar is worth 17.
This gives the following operation: 17 + 10 – 10 = 17.
If you’ve beaten the stopwatch with the correct answer, then congratulations! You’re certainly a determined person, persevering in your goals. In fact, only 25% of people who take this test are able to solve it, and you’re one of them. However, if you couldn’t solve it, don’t panic!
