Fancy yourself as a bit of a brainbox? While these three questions might seem easy enough to confirm yourself as being a genius, the answers might make you think again.
THREE questions separate you from being of average intelligence and full-blown brainbox – but are they as easy as they seem?
The Cognitive Reflection Test has been hailed as the world’s shortest IQ test because it features just three questions.
These three questions are much harder than they seem
Each one is designed to assess your abilities to identify a simple problem that might actually be harder than it first appears.
Not only do boffins claim that getting the right answer is a sign of genius, but also the time frame in which you come up with your solution.
Take the world's shortest IQ test

1. A bat and a ball cost N1.10 in total. The bat costs N1.00 more than the ball. How much does the ball cost?

2. If it takes 5 machines 5 minutes to make 5 widgets, how long would it take 100 machines to make 100 widgets?

3. In a lake, there is a patch of lily pads. Every day, the patch doubles in size.If it takes 48 days for the patch to cover the entire lake, how long would it take for the patch to cover half of the lake?

Now you’ve had a crack at the questions, the chances are you answered 10kobo for question 1, 100 minutes for question 2 and 24 days for question 3.
If you did, you are wrong.

1.10 bat and ball. Bat is 1:00 more. That means there must be a difference between the price of bat Nd ball. I chose. 09 because it gives a difference of 0.01

Even if 1000 machines are used it's still the same time

Patch doubles in size everyday that means at day 47 it was at half the lake, at day 48 it doubled to fill it. Shey you get

I think that your number one is wrong.
The bat is N1 more, hence subtract one naira from their total cost: 1.10 -- 1 = 0.10
Divide the remainder into two equal halves: 0.1/2 = 0.05

my goodness...this is no IQ test. Not so easy but def not so hard

Exactly my answers.
The questions are from proportion and word problems leading to simple equations

Kindly explain why it should be divided by two.
The law that binds division also binds subtraction. To the minimal. As long as the end result is still greater than one. This bat can be from 1.01 to 1.05. An exact figure wasn't given.

Go and study proportion in mathematics to learn more on it.
This is an example of compound proportion. The question no 2 above is a complex proportion. And they are all interesting to learn.

These are maths questions or is IQ the same as maths?
I know a lot of smart people who are very bad at mathematics

The difference in there costs must be equal to one, that is what the question says.

If you put 1.01 for the bat, for instance, the cost of the ball becomes 0.09, then difference in there costs becomes:

1.01-- 0.09 = 0.92

And 0.92 is not equal to 1.

Hope you get it now?
