Anybody fancy doing a puzzle???

[Pepe n Pilar]

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

My answers are
12,3 and 2

Im guessing, 3, 12, 2

answer is 18

is it right?

4/61 4 x 4 = 16 So, answer reversed
5/52 5 x 5 = 25 ----//----


9/18 9 x 9 = 81

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

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.

Measurement and scales are just elementary to others. The hardest for me is Calculus

Although she's panic, it doesn't mean she can't understands measurement. And I didn't say she is poor in Math exactly. She's just panicking with numbers

The hardest for me is Calculus

Calculus is just as easy as any other branch of mathematics if you understand the concept, Penny.
People have asked me before for help with Maths and English but it has been impractical.
However, soon I hope to have my 'Online Teaching Website' open.

I have also been sitting here reading some of the comments about maths. Very sensible thoughts - especially about how maths is taught.

What is the use in using algebra and pythagorous thereom? I'm 37, I didn't need it yet..

Hi Nigel. Glad to answer your questions.

Algebra can be used in most mathematical areas and there are literally thousands of jobs that use mathematics.

Pythagorus is used by such people as engineers, pilots and navigators, to name but a few.

More power to your hypoteneuse!!

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

Did u say it must be in order? Anyway it's alright. I accept if answer is wrong for you. Just strange you said correct and now wrong ehehe what made u carefully check?

Just tell your Mom about her wrong belief about Math panic/ math anxiety. That will really help us. My sis, who is a teacher for 25 yrs always tell me that not because we have phobia in Math, English, Science and other subject means you are poor in that subject. That's also the views of math experts.

Sir,
Calculus is confusing because of numbers and unknown symbols that makes me panic.

I will enrol to your website I also wish to refresh my Spanish course. Yo hablo un poco. Por favor señor y muchos gracias

Thanks for your comment!

As far as I can remember teacher from Kindergarten, Primary, Secondary, and Intermediate they always emphasize that in Math specially in solving problems the answer must be in ORDER and it's proper place. It's not in scramble order. So, I think there is one simple RULE in Math all the answers it MUST be in order all the time. Because if not, your answer will be wrong. Formula is a formula, and you can never scramble your answer or else everything is wrong.

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!

not that good in tagalog means hinde gaano magaling....I used the word panic bec she never did because she was a professional Mathematician. Perhaps some panics bec they are still learning (STUDENTS). How will an author of a Math book panics? If our professor/tutor/teacher in Math panics then what will happen? Pls enlighten me on this....

Even if your Math teacher won't tell you that answers should be in order it must be. SHOULD BE IN ORDER ALL THE TIME. You should know that as you got 95 in Math. I am not that good...
So i made "double checking" on your answers.... and noticed it was interchanged...
