Most of the time, to solve a problem, you have to think outside the box and explore the potential of the mind. And that's exactly what puzzles do: they stimulate our cognitive and motor skills, encouraging logical thinking and attention.
At the moment, the most recent challenge that has been making waves on social media and intriguing many people is “Can you guess the weight of each animal in 30 seconds?”. As the name implies, the goal is simple: determine the weight of the animals in the illustration and what their weights add up in just a few seconds. Prepare the stopwatch, drag the screen and good luck.
And there? Did you get to the final result?
If time is up and you still can't answer the question, why not try again, but without the time pressure? Let's go!
In case you're still trying to figure out the answer or just want to check out the final result, check it out now:
1st equation) Frog + sheep = 10 ↔ Sheep = 10 – frog
2nd equation) Frog + horse = 20 ↔ Horse = 20 – frog
3rd equation) Sheep + horse = 24
Substituting the 1st and 2nd equations in the 3rd equation, we have: (10 – frog) + (20 – frog) = 24, whose result will be frog = 3 kg.
Solving the other equations, we will have as a final result the weight of the horse equal to 17 kg, that of the frog equal to 3 kg and that of the sheep 7 kg. Therefore, the sum of the weight of the 3 animals is equal to 27 kg.
