The answer you are probably after is 3, 12, 2 though it could be 3, 13, 12 instead.

[adam&chryss]

my answer is 12, 9, 8 or could be 10, 9, 8

I'm sure 2nd and third numbers are 9 and 8.

Hope i got it right!

[pennybarry]

My answers are
12,3 and 2

[Pepe n Pilar]

My answers are
12,3 and 2

Sorry the correct answer is 3,12 and 2... You have interchanged the numbers

[aryM]

my answer is 2, 9, 8 not sure yet.,will analyze more.lol

[adam&chryss]

13, 9, 8 also a possible answer

[nigel]

8 + 11 = 19 + 5 + 4 = Nigels cr*p at maths!

[tiN]

8 + 11 = 19 + 5 + 4 = Nigels cr*p at maths!

Im guessing, 3, 12, 2

Thanks.

Best of luck to all of you

3, 12, 2 is the correct answer. For the benefit of those who are still scratching their heads - it is the numbers from one to twelve arranged in alphabetical order.

Here's another one. What number is missing from the bottom line?

4/61
5/52
6/63
7/94
8/46
9/??

Mr P&P

I got correct answer!!!!

So I'm still good in Math

I took Skills for Life course here and it's all about Math and English.
My Math grade was 95 while English was only 82

My teacher said I'm good in Math but everytime I took my examination, I felt headache. I feel my brain get Twisting.

I will not answer the last one if no congrats Too hard to think answers

Thanks to all who replied.That was Mr P&P doing the puzzle tests on you...He got loads of them..Watch for it

That's good Penny you got a high grade in Math.
There's a saying in the Phils if English is the major subject then Math is the minor and vice versa. Do you agree on that?
My mum was very good on both English and Math. I remember she taught us in our Math subjects and Statistics... and perfect grammar as well.. I wish i had followed her footsteps!....

Cheers!

Thanks Yeh! I agree with you as I have classmate who is always panic with numbers but she speaks excellent and fluent english so she took medicine and now she's somebody in our town.
My Mom is good in Math much better than anybody of us because she can count thru mental calculation. She doesn't know how to use calcu. At 81 she can still do mental calculation

[nigel]

Hey! You can't count letters! You can only count numbers!

ok then what is U + F - G x R ?

I am joking!

She was poor in Math but now a Doctor? I just hope she won't get confused with the prescriptions she gives out to her patients. Like the difference of "ml" from "mg".
ML (milliliters) use to measure liquid volume. e.g. 5ml = 1 tsp.
MG (milligrams) use to measure weight. (1,000 of a gram)
Very small amounts of medicine in a mixture.
e.g. 10 mg of active ingredient in a pill.

Looking forward to your answers to this latest quiz.

Thank you.

Well done! 18 is the right answer. Obviously I will have to try to think of something a bit more taxing.

oh gee

[Pepe n Pilar]

Awwww panicking in Math!... I remember my mum said whenever she was given problems to solve in Math or anything that has to do with numbers she was so excited and so happy to give the answers, she never panics. She said once a person panics or is frightened by those problem solving or whatever abt Math then he/she is not that good in Math bec if he/she is good she will never panic!

That is the thing you need to explain to your MOM. Tell her being panic is just like a math anxiety and it doesn't mean you are poor in Math. You can share this to your Mom if your Mom is a teacher or she teaches you.

Math anxiety or fear of math is actually quite common. Math anxiety is quite similar to stagefright. Why does someone suffer stagefright? Fear of something going wrong in front of a crowd? Fear of forgetting the lines? Fear of being judged poorly? Fear of going completely blank? Math anxiety conjures up fear of some type. The fear that one won't be able to do the math or the fear that it's too hard or the fear of failure which often stems from having a lack of confidence. For the most part, math anxiety is the fear about doing the math right, our minds draw a blank and we think we'll fail and of course the more frustrated and anxious our minds become, the greater the chance for drawing blanks. Added pressure of having time limits on math tests and exams also cause the levels of anxiety grow for many students.

Where Does Math Anxiety Come From?

Usually math anxiety stems from unpleasant experiences in mathematics. Typically math phobics have had math presented in such a fashion that it led to limited understanding. Unfortunately, math anxiety is often due to poor teaching and poor experiences in math which typically leads to math anxiety. Many of the students I've encountered with math anxiety have demonstrated an over reliance on procedures in math as opposed to actually understanding the math. When one tries to memorize procedures, rules and routines without much understanding, the math is quickly forgotten and panic soons sets in. Think about your experiences with one concept - the division of fractions. You probably learned about reciprocals and inverses. In other words, 'It's not yours to reason why, just invert and multiply'. Well, you memorized the rule and it works. Why does it work? Do you really understand why it works? Did anyone every use pizzas or math manipulatives to show you why it works? If not, you simply memorized the procedure and that was that. Think of math as memorizing all the procedures - what if you forget a few? Therefore, with this type of strategy, a good memory will help, but, what if you dont' have a good memory. Understanding the math is critical. Once students realize they can do the math, the whole notion of math anxiety can be overcome. Teachers and parents have an important role to ensure students understand the math being presented to them.
