What should be the value of the fourth column?
@DarkWolf
is it 61? coz as per calculations grey is 4, black is 44, white is 9, so 4th weight = 44+(4)2+9 = 44+8+9 =61
@niceDaisy36
If black is 44, how does the second column make sense?
@DarkWolf
wait 1 min, i confused, i will write the entire sum here
@niceDaisy36
lol i messed the second one
@DarkWolf
grey is 15, black is 11, white is 20 so 5th will be 20+ (15)2 + 11 = 61
@niceDaisy36
* i mean weight hahha yet i wrote their 5th, lol hahha.
@niceDaisy36 my lazy frog again...hasn't learned anything...π

A four letter word can be attached to the end of the word to the left, and to the beginning of the word to the right, to give a longer word in each case.

Rearrange the letters of 'WE SAT THERE' to give a topical word.
What is it?
What number should replace the question mark?
@DarkWolf....we think it's 7.
@Lifer me too
@Lifer
It's not 7.
I'll give a hint.. to solve this you have to multiply. And see every different square as an opertunity to try and find the pattern used on the one square with the '?'.
@DarkWolf just for once Wolf, can you please say 7 is the answer? Please? Humour me...
@DarkWolf you are welcome to tell us the "wrong" answer but let it be 7 tgis time Wolf...
@Butterflee
Logic puzzles have an answer you should be able to come to through reasoning.
Saying answers are 'correct' that are clearly 'wrong', is a slippery slope. It's way more satisifying to actually find the right answer eventually, compared to someone saying your answer is correct, even though you know it's wrong anyway.
@DarkWolf does being politically correct give you a sense of satisfaction Wolf? Have you ever made a gift to anyone? A white lie to make someone feel better? A cold true answer is simple Wolf, a gifted lie is a difficult present...your choice...i know the answer anyway...
@Butterflee Oh Butterflee...how do you do it? My mind cannot think that way. I'm so impressed by your ability to think so
logically! Where were you a few months ago when I made an extremely illogical decision that changed my life, or at least shook it pretty hard? Silverlining- if not for that poor illogical decision, I wouldn't have "met" so many wonderful people like yourself.
@DarkWolf It's 5. I really needed the hint, though.
@cloudySummer
Yes! This wasn't an easy one at all. Very well done!
"In each square, multiply the two numbers on the right to give the two on the left."
@cloudySummer
What a star, There is no chance of me getting the answer but I've been watching all the say.
@lazyKatz i wish you will get to shine too Katz, watching helps in learning, but acting is much betterπ once you get the hang of itπ€...
@Butterflee
I'm hear with my dunces hat and eyeing a place up the corner.
