This problem is so old that I remember doing it once upon a time where the bat and ball cost $1.10. If a baseball and bat cost $110, and the bat costs $100 more than the ball, how much does the ball cost? Even though - potentially confounding hint - this isn’t as much of an 11 as you might initially think. I had to find at least one problem with an “11” in it.

In each backpack, there are seven large cats. 5 | That’s a whole lot of catsĪs crudely illustrated above, there are seven sisters standing around the kitchen table. This one feels the most “math-y” of any problems on the list and is arguably the only one that is probably appearing on some kids’ math tests somewhere in the world today. What is the maximum value of x minus the minimum value of x? What’s the ideal score for the moment they wear off to give you the best shot at winning?Īnd you don’t have the option to just throw your opponent your mom’s underhand softball pitch. But the powers will wear off at some point in the match.

This is a nice, agreeable equation with a definitive right answer. And two, I’m not getting THAT tricky for problem number one. 1 | Racks on racks on racks of squares in squares in squaresĪnd no, the border around the image does not count. So just send the sum total of the 10 problems, and you can include the tennis answer separately.) (You can leave out the answer to the tennis problem, since there’s really no way to add that in. And if you include all of your answers (like 20 + 5 + 177 + etc…) then I’ll let you know how many you’re off. However, at the end, if you want to add up the total of your answers and tweet it to me, I’ll let you know if you’re right or wrong. And also, welcome to Costco, I love you.īecause I respect you, I did not include the answers to these questions anywhere. If you saw this list title and did recoil in horror, there are approximately 600 other lists on this website that you’ll probably want to check out. If you saw this list title and didn’t recoil in horror, prepare to have all sorts of nerd fun. However, seeing as that is not a official thing (thanks for dragging your feet on that, OBAMA) - these are just 11 math brain teasers for any old Tuesday. ![]() If Brain Teaser Tuesday was a thing, THIS would be great for Brain Teaser Tuesday. This list title will either make you thrilled or it will make you recoil in horror.
