We present to you the math puzzle of the day
Today the puzzle presents a set of equations represented by common symbols: an alarm clock, a vase of flowers and a bell. By introducing a total of four equations, the first puzzle has already been solved to give you a starting point. Your task is to solve the fourth equation, which combines all the elements of the previous equations.
To succeed, you need to figure out the value of each object and come up with the final answer – all in less than ten seconds.
Reveal the solution
In case you were not able to solve the puzzle yourself, here is the answer:
- The first line: the representation of the apple tree multiplied by the apricot tree results in zero (6 x 0 = 0).
- Line two: Adding an apple tree to an apricot tree equals six (6 + 0 = 6).
- Third line: The expression “12 minus 2 multiplied by 2” gives the value of the pot (12 – (2 x 2) = 8).
- Fourth row: Finally, adding an apple tree, an apricot tree, and a pot makes fourteen (6 + 0 + 8 = 14).
So, the correct answer to the riddle is 14.
