Math and Logic Puzzles

Do you hate mathematics? If your answer is Yes, then maybe you haven’t taken the real test of math ever. Take the real test now.             Do you want to amaze your friends? Then use this magic. They will be amazed surely. First of all, tell them to write three numbers on their exercise book. After that, ask them to show you the three numbers. Now you will have to write down these numbers on a piece of paper or anywhere. And from this moment onwards your magic is going to begin. Write the number “2” in front of the numbers.           Example:  They have written 146                               You have to write "2" in front of 146. It will be 2146. After that you will have to subtract “2” from the numbers. Example:                                             2146-2= 2144, and it will be the result of your magic! Now note the result on your paper. Try to do these very quickly in a hidden way. Go ahead. Tell your friends to write again three numbers under the first given numbers. That will look like ….                                                        1 4 6                                                        X X X                                        X X X are the second set of given numbers. They have written 287. Then it will be something like this…                                                        1 4 6                                                        2 8 7 Now it’s your turn to write numbers. It is a very important moment in this magic. You can’t write as you want. You have to write numbers by following the 2nd time given numbers from your friend. Keep in mind that the result of the addition of your numbers and 2nd time given numbers will be 999. See the example:                                                        1 4 6 2nd time given numbers:           2 8 7 Your numbers:                            7 1 2 Note that the  2nd time they have written “2” first.  For that, you will have to write 7. So that the result of the addition is a 9.  The next number, they have written “8” and you will have to write “1” to make the result of the addition is a 9 just like before. The third number, they have written “7” and so you will have to write “2” to make the result of the addition to be 9 again! This is not the end. Again, tell them to write another three numbers under your given numbers. They have written 456. So, it will look like this ….                                                       1 4 6                                                       2 8 7                                                       7 1 2                                                       4 5 6         Now, it's your turn to write another three numbers. Again, you will have to write the numbers carefully so that the result of the addition can only be 999.  Next, give you paper (where the answer has been written already) to your friends and tell them to add all the numbers. See the example again:                                                       1 4 6                                                       2 8 7                                                       7 1 2                                                       4 5 6                                                               5 4 3 Result:                                         2144 The result is the same! No one can do this as fast as you can! You are a Superman! I hope you like this magic.

Playing the daily Sudoku puzzle on USA Today's website was a party of my routine for a while. I like the way it gets your eyes and brain on the same page, it's a good mental exercise to do early in the day to ensure you are at your best all day. For me, the same applies to any sort of fun, mentally challenging game. Chess, crossword puzzle, scrabble, all these things get my brain working. It's kind of like stretching before playing a sport, getting your body in prime condition so you don't strain something.

Ahh math and Logic puzzles! lol. I really really hate math especially those which involves letters. I really feel awful whenever the numbers are mixed with the letters. lol. What I am here for is to share my love for logic puzzles. I am really the type of person who really loves intriguing questions, I love the feeling when you cannot focused on something you are doing because you cannot think of the answer to a puzzle. It is awkward right? but it is very challenging.

I want to share with you a logic puzzle which I can remember..

 

There are three light bulbs in a room, and three light switches outside the room. You are outside, and want to match up which switch goes with which light bulb. You can only travel into the room once, and cannot come back in again. You can do anything you want upon entering the room. How can you set the situation so that you will know which switch goes with which light bulb?

Haa, this riddle really got me thinking for minutes!! this is very tricky I literally laughed at myself when the answer was revealed to me. Anyone here who wants to answer?

Math class and homework is so boring to me, but for some reason math puzzles can keep me entertained.I love playing sudoko too.  It's a great way to unwind while still working on keeping your brain sharp. Sometimes it gets a little addictive, lol. There are so many brain teaser apps are so much fun and force your brain to workout.  One of the most fun puzzle games I have on my phone is this game called flow and flow bridges.  I also really like doing word searches. Word searches aren't really logic puzzles but I have found that they help me keep up my reading speed. If you want to practice or learn how to do speed reading, I would suggest to do word searches.  They're fun and they can really improve your reading speed.
