arthropod, artificer, arteriole, artichoke, arthritis, articular, artillery, arthritic
2) What numbers should replace the question marks?
100, 95, ?, 79, 68, ?, 40, 23
3) Only one of the groups of five letters below can be rearranged to spell out a five-letter English word. Find the word:
PCEOL GRILN NBDRA
4) What numbers should replace the question marks?
0,100, 6, 94,12, 88,18, 82, ?, ?
5) Jack is three times as old as Jill,but in three years time he will only be twice as old. How old are Jack and Jill?

is there anything like nairaland maths clinic??
Also, not all of it are maths questions, there.are still verbal reasoning questions there
Re: Solve If You Are A Genius by Nobody: 10:44am On Dec 14, 2013
answer to your question@op.
1. re-arranging according to alphabetical order, we have: arteriole, arthritic, arthritis, arthropod, artichoke, articular, artificer and artillery.
2. 100,95,88,79,68,55,40,23........>88 and 55 are the new answers.
workings
100-5=95, note: we add 2 to the number that we would use to subtract, so we have:
95-7=88, 88-9=79, 79-11=68, 68-13=55, 55-15=40, 40-17=23.......
3.the group of word that was mispelt that would have meaning is NBDRA, to give us BRAND.
4.0,100,6,94,12,88,18,82,24,76
the new answers is 24 and 76....
workings
the first number 0, has to do with the addition of 6's[and it continues its trend with the third term, fifth term , seventh term and ninth term.
the second number in the sequence, 100, deals with the subtraction of 6, and it continues its trend with the fourth term, sixth term, eight term and tenth term..
i.e for the addition of 6's, we have 0+6=6, 6+6=12, 12+6=18, and 18+6=24..,

the remaining solutions to ur qstns@op.
4. the second term has to do with the subtraction of 6's, so we have: 100-6=94, 94-6=88, 88-6=82, 82-6=76.........that's how it is.
5. for question 5, this is the workings
workings
let's call jack's age=x
let's call jill's age=y
remember from the question that jack's age=3 times jill's age, so we have:
x=3y..........eqn1
note, from the question, in 3yrs time, the sum of jack's age wld be twice of jill's age:
x+3=2(y+3).....eqn2
now from eqn1, x=3y, so we input it into the new eqn.
3y+3=2(y+3)....we open the bracket
3y+3=2y+6 (collect like terms)
3y-2y=6-3
y=3....when y=3, we input our value into eqn1
x=3y
x=3(3)
x=9, therefore, jack's age is 9 while jill's age is 3.
6. solution
let's call the three numbers x, y and z.
(x+y+z)/3=19....eqn1
let's say z is the missing number,
(x+y)/2=24....eqn2
from eqn1, x+y+z=19*3
x+y+z=57....eqn3
from eqn2,
x+y=24*2
x+y=48,...eqn4
we input the value of eqn 4 in eqn 3
so we have,
48+z=57, z=57-48=9...

1. Put the following words into alphabetical order:

arteriole, arthritic, arthritis, arthropod, artichoke, articular, artificer, artillery,



3. Only one of the groups of five letters below can be rearranged to spell out a five-letter English word. Find the word:
PCEOL GRILN NBDRA

NBDRA=brand


5) Jack is three times as old as Jill,but in three years time he will only be twice as old. How old are Jack and Jill?

Jack is 9, Jill is 3. In 3 years jack will be 12, Jill will be 6. 12 is 6 doubled!

6) The average of three numbers is 19. The average of two of these numbers is 24. What is the third number?
