lmao.

I also wanna thank God sey this no dey for Engineering Maths. I for never graduate fah!

But on a serious note, are those supposed to be that difficult or just mistakes?

hello guys... i saw this pattern in a quantitative reasoning textbook.. and i got stucked, to my amazement i couldnt link up the pattern.. can someone try this out??

@lalasticlala, ishilove, etc... abeg allow the world of NL to tackle this.. thanks

Example 1:
4-3(imaginary 3)=1
1+3(imaginary 3)=4

7+2(imaginary2)=9
9-2(imaginary 2)=7

The 1at the upper left multiplied by imaginary 2 . The answer added to the number in the middle.
This pattern works for the 2nd example.

Thanks and God bless!

139 x 3 = 417

258 x 2 = 516

Trust me, this is the answer. I know, highly annoying, right?

nice one..that's one thing about quantitative reasoning,when you find the answer you realise the answers are usually hidden in simple patterns...

Re: Simple Looking But Difficult Pattern, Only Geniuses Can Get This by Nobody: 4:49pm On Jan 13, 2016

417 / 3 = 139

516 / 2 = 258

NOTE: I was taught this before. I didn't come up with it.

SIMPLE

FIRST EXAMPLE

4 LEFT + 3 MIDDLE = 7 ON THE RIGHT

7 RIGHT + 3 MIDDLE = 9 ABOVE THE 7

3 MIDDLE + 1 BELOW - 3 ABOVE = 1 ON THE RIGHT.

--------------------------------------------------

SAME GOES FOR EXAMPLE 2 grin

[s]I believe the whole setup is not complete without actual problems to work with. Could you upload the setups after that pattern.[/s]

Trust me, this is the answer. I know, highly annoying, right?

Re: Simple Looking But Difficult Pattern, Only Geniuses Can Get This by FisifunKododada: 5:32pm On Jan 13, 2016

EASY: 139 X 3 =417. Also 258 X 2 = 516
You can also view it as: 417/3=139 and 516/2=258.

Basically two sides of the same coin.

Kwekwe. Pesin don answer am.
But why would one give such questions to primary 6 pupils? Or are basic 6 pupils now capable of multiplying 3 digits in their head? :/

Re: Simple Looking But Difficult Pattern, Only Geniuses Can Get This by xxxifyxxx(f): 1:01am On Jan 14, 2016

First Pattern:

1, 2 (9-7), 3 (4-1), 4 (3+1) and 5 (3+3-1).
Essentially 1,2,3,4,5.

Follow this for the second pattern
1, 2 (8-6), 3 (5-2), 4 (2+2) and 5 (5+2-2)

I hope you understand the logic. cool
