BuffaloBill Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 Think about the title to the thread .... it also leaves open the possiblity that those with less than a 120 IQ can also solve it. It does not say only those with 120 or above can solve the problem. BTW - I solved it in about 2 min - I do not know my actual I.Q. so I will have to now guess that it is north of 120 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Miner Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 I knew it almost as soon as I read the second line. Anytime you see 7 and 63 together you gotta think 9. 7+2 isn't that big of a brainbuster. A quick check with the first line, and I really didn't need to bother to check the last two. Also: Guys + Math /= Ladies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
