I've decided to post something that can be of use to one's brain. I love quizzes. If you love to fret & solve quizzes...the kind who wont sleep till you solve it...then come here for interesting quizzes.
I did something like the quiz below in 1 of the courses I went for @ Civil Service College recently & although I'm not that gd with Maths, I was the 1st to solve it in juz 5 mins! So while I crack my brain at this 1...u ppl (if u want to, no one's forcing!) go try it & post ur ans, then I'll tell u whether u're rite (private message, so as not to spoil the fun for others who'd like to try).
