Riddles can be a lot of fun and, at times, they can be quite challenging as well. We often do them to fill the time but there are reasons why you would also want to do them regularly. After all, studies have shown that riddles are not only enjoyable, they may even help to exercise the brain and keep serious problems, such as Alzheimer’s and dementia away. They may not be an absolute cure, but there is evidence that they help.
Of course, no two riddles are going to be alike and, at times, you are not going to find the answer easily. That is sure to be the case with this maths intelligence riddle. It will put your skills to the test and, if you are able to solve it in less than 10 seconds, you are considered a genius.
I have to admit, this one took me quite a while to figure out. So, I may not be an Einstein but then again, most people aren’t. Perhaps I should hit the Sudoku puzzles a bit harder!
SPOILER ALERT: If you are stumped, here is the solution
The numbers in the equations should be multiplied, then added together, then subtract the second number from the first.
