Help With Quantative Reasoning by phatriqk(op): 6:12pm On Oct 05, 2023
I figured programmers are good with maths and numbers I might someone who could solve this here, I posted in the education section no one has figured it yet?

Do it by yourself


Crack your brain small, it's very simple or


Come up with an excuse and dump it on your wife

We feel honored that those in education section couldn't solve this 😂

Here's the format:

There are four numbers arranged horizontally. According to their position from left to right, we'll classify them as N1, N2, N3 and N4.

Let's focus on N2, The logic is this:
N1 + N4 ÷ N3 = N2 (don't use BODMAS, a calculator may use BODMAS so calculate with pen and paper.)
(N1 + N4) ÷ N3 = N2 (for calculator)

Please if I've confused you, I'm terribly sorry
Re: Help With Quantative Reasoning by Alphabyte2:
It seems that there are three operations addition , subtraction and division . However, there doesn't appear to be a consistent pattern or logic of the left and right boxes
N1=N2N3-N4
N2=(N1+N4)/N3
N3=(N1+N4)/N2
N4=N2N3-N1

11) N2=(N1+N4)/N1

N2=(7+1)/4= 2


13)N3=(N1+N4)/N2

N3=(8+7)/5=3


13)N1=N2N3-N4

N1=(5×1)-4 =5-4=1

14)N4=N2N3-N1

N4=(5×2)-4 =10-4=6

15) N3=(N1+N4)/N2

N3=(5+5)/2 =10/2 =5

Nope, I think your methods aren't completely correct.

What about your solution the example is just additional and subtraction of left and right boxes it is not consistent

It's quite consistent, maybe this will help

I now understand the logic now thanks

What your programming stack?

I'm not a programmer cry
I'm a fanatic tho.

Alright but programming won't be hard for you because your level of critical thinking is high.

Maybe you're overrating me but I appreciate the compliment wink

Actually I was trying to learn some coding... A little Python, a little web development stuff.

I'm quite lazy so I'm taking a 2-3 month break... But hopefully, I may cope if I keep up.

(N1 + N4 )/N3 = N2

This is the correct mathematical statement. I stand to be corrected . Thanks
