A problem that adults can’t solve
It’s a quiz for children, but it requires ideas that adults with fixed preconceptions can’t easily come up with.
As we get older, our minds gradually become rigid without us noticing.
As a way to train flexible thinking, it might be good to try quizzes like this once in a while.
Bill Gates’s job interview!
This is a question said to have been used in an interview with the famous Microsoft founder, Bill Gates.
It’s a problem that you can’t solve without using your head, but the answer is quite convincing, so why not give it a try?
Entrance exam questions for competitive elementary schools
Entrance exam questions from competitive elementary schools that test mental flexibility are like challenging quizzes for adults.
They require not only knowledge, but also flashes of insight and logical reasoning to arrive at the answers.
For example: “There are 100 apples, 60 are red and 40 are blue.
What percentage are blue apples?” By tackling problems like these, you train modes of thinking that aren’t used in everyday life.
Questions that are easy for children may offer new discoveries for adults, too.
They’re entertaining and serve as brain training, so they’re definitely worth a try.
Evolved Version: Problems Adults Can’t Solve (Latent Ability Edition)
These are puzzles said to be solvable by children but not by adults, where wit and quick thinking are the keys to the correct answer.
It’s important to clearly picture the situation described in the problem, but what’s really tested is your ability to imagine everything around the given scene and to notice small inconsistencies.
They’re considered questions that measure PQ—potential quotient—rather than IQ, and the fact that having lots of knowledge doesn’t lead directly to the right answer is part of the fun.
Even people who are good at ordinary quizzes may find themselves overthinking and unable to come up with the answer.
Five logic puzzles
These are problems that test different kinds of thinking—some challenge your common sense and powers of observation, while others require a bit of creativity.
There are also questions that call for a slightly unconventional way of thinking, so it might be interesting to tackle them together with someone else.
