Math Quiz: What are the ages of the five siblings?

[Arithmetic Quiz] Junior high entrance exam questions look easy for adults but are actually hard! “What are the ages of the five siblings?” brain plus*

High difficulty! Here’s a puzzle to determine the ages of five siblings.

In this quiz, you’ll figure out each of their ages.

The only information given is the sums of the ages of pairs of siblings.

There are 10 sums in total, each representing the sum of two different siblings’ ages.

Using these, let’s uncover how old each sibling is.

The key to solving this problem is that the eldest is older than the second eldest, and the second eldest is older than the third.

[Challenging Math Quiz] What is Lisa’s score?

[Challenging Math Quiz] An elementary schooler can solve it but adults can’t: the math problem “What is Lisa’s score?” (Brain training from a junior high school entrance exam)

This is a quiz where four people—Taro, Jiro, Hanako, and Lisa—answer a 10-question test.

Using the choices each person selected for each question and the scores of the three people other than Lisa, we deduce Lisa’s score.

It’s a constraint-organization problem where you consider where answers match or differ and how the scores change accordingly.

You start by examining cases where the scores are the same but the answers differ, and, including hypotheses, think through which parts are earning points.

By sequentially deriving which questions can be said to be certainly correct from the conditions, you ultimately apply those conclusions to Lisa’s answers.

[Arithmetic Puzzles] Three maze problems said to be solved by smart elementary school students! Includes explanations [Math Quiz]

This is a math quiz recommended for elementary school students who love mazes! The problem works like a maze from start to goal, and you have to reach the goal—or guess where the goal is—while following set rules such as “You can’t use the same path twice” and “Each door can only be opened once.” Unlike problems with letters or numbers, you can progress visually while thinking it through, so it’s great fun to get together with a few friends and solve it as a group! Read the rules carefully and figure out the correct route!
