In the picture below you will see burgers, pizza, and cola representing certain numbers.
Find the value of each and then find the value of the missing number.
Couldn’t you find out? Well, here we show in detail the solution to this challenge that has driven more than one person on Facebook crazy.
A
B
C
ANSWER:
To solve the riddle we first substitute the pictures with letters;
Let’s assume the following;
Burger = B
Pizza slice = P
Cola drink glass = C
We can rewrite the equations as;
B + B + B = 30 ————- (1)
B + P + P = 20 ————- (2)
P + 2C + 2C = 9 ————- (3)
&
P + C x B =? ————- (4)
From (1)
3B = 30
Therefore;
B = 10
From (2)
B + 2P = 20
10 + 2P = 20
2P = 10
Therefore;
P = 5
From (3)
P + 2C + 2C = 9
5 + 4C = 9
4C = 4
Therefore;
C = 1
To find the missing number in (4)
P + C x B =?
Substituting the values of B, P & C in (4) we get;
5 + 1 x 10 = 5 + 10 = 15
