What is the value on the place of '?'
On these type of puzzles mostly can be solve in few seconds. But this puzzle is little bit tricky than other puzzles. As it said puzzle really that makes us puzzled. So before solving these type of puzzles always keep mind that do not be hurry and check carefully all the instructions and signs used in the figure. Most people did not check the mathematical signs carefully that's why they made mistakes in simple puzzles.
Lets Begin to solve this puzzle. As this puzzle is not the simple as it seems, so we have to be very careful. So lets check each line of figures carefully and we will find the values of each figures respectively.
On first line,
there are 3 pair of shoes sum is 30.
That means each pair of shoes is 30/3=10. ....................... [a]
And just one shoe is 10/2= 5 ............................................ [b]
On second line,
2 man and 1 pair shoe is 20
i.e. 2man + 10 (from [b]) = 20.
So 2man = 20-10 = 10.
And 1 man = 10/2 = 5 .....................................................[c]
On third line,
2 pair of scarf and 1 man = 13,
i.e. 2 pair of scarf + 5 (from [c]) = 13
So, 2 pair of scarf = 13-5 = 8
Then, 1 pair of scarf = 8/2 = 4 ......................................... [d]
And, Just one scarf = 4/2 = 2 .......................................... [e]
Now Final Question line, here is the main tricky done.
Look at that man, on second and third line he do not have shoes and do not carry any scarf. But here on last line, the man is with shoes and have 2 scarf in his hand. And another tricky done is, after the man the mathematical symbol is multiply (*) not addition as before.
Thus, the last line will be as:
1 Single Shoe + (1 Man + 1 Pair Scarf + 1 Pair Shoe) * 1 Scarf
= 5 + (5+4+10) * 2
= 5 + 19 * 2
= 5 + 38
= 43
So the correct Answer is 43.
