Hints for checking or finding the
answers to the problems above:
Brain Teaser Example:
-
Suppose your friend is 17: 17+90=107
-
He crosses off the first digit to the answer, which is one
-
He then adds the digit that is crossed out, leaving: 07+1=8
-
You add 9 to that sum and you get his age, 17, because 8+9=17
