Crossy Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Not new, but I don't think it's been posted before. All you have to do is work out the number of the space where the car is parked. Please don't post the solution, just how long it took you to arrive at it. Mine was about 30 seconds, apparently most 6 year olds take about 10 EDIT Spoiler added so you can check if you are correct. 87 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lovelomsak Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 cannot get the number even after 5 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony5 Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Took me less than a second, and that while I was eating my cereal at the same time. Of course since the answer isn't known, who knows if my solution is correct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orac Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Immediate - took me longer to realise why it would be difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossy Posted June 19, 2015 Author Share Posted June 19, 2015 OK, OK, I've added a spoiler so you can verify that your 5 second answer is correct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB1950 Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 From the angle I was looking at it, it seemed impossible to come up with a solution. When I looked at it from a different angle, it was instantly obvious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daffy D Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Didn't get it till I checked the answer and then it still took a few seconds to realize the obvious Geez! I am getting old Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jip99 Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 4 seconds. .... but I am one of the world's worst reversers.... so I have that manoeuvre whenever I can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krisb Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 (edited) Took me 87 seconds. (Sorry Crossy) Edited June 19, 2015 by krisb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossy Posted June 19, 2015 Author Share Posted June 19, 2015 I'd say 87 because if you turn it up the other way the numbers are in order. Indeed, but did you read the 3rd line of the OP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NiwPix Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Took about 20 seconds. My "problem" was that I looked at the riddle too complex. I was looking at the 6 and carried it over to the next spot and then back and was trying to figure out a pattern for the 8's. Even used division, addition, substraction. So, after all that, I am actually quite proud with "only" 20 seconds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossy Posted June 19, 2015 Author Share Posted June 19, 2015 No worries krisb, it lasted all day. Tried it on paper in the office with our engineers, only one got it immediately (the youngest, he looks about 15), everybody else threatened to lynch me when shown the solution.
