How to solve that bananas, shapes, and clocks puzzle from Facebook.

in #puzzle8 years ago (edited)


This riddle and many like it often pop up in my newsfeed on Facebook and I'm surprised by the diversity of answers (especially the ones from not being able to correctly do the arithmetic).

This one is perhaps a little trickier than the basic ones because of the changing numbers. See if you can solve it then click on the video for the work-through.

Well, it's just dumb.
You should rely on unobvious assume that number on figure depends on count of bananas and hours. Maybe they are nonlinear.

yeah, these ones with the added trick this uses of changing numbers are quite amusing (and disappointing) in the variety of answers people give. There really should only be maybe 4 different answers given for this one depending on which combination of changing numbers were picked up on.

There certainly is only a singular accurate answer though

You need to look closely... However, there is an infinite number of solutions.
