First Question:
You are participating in a race! You overtake the second person. What position are you in?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Answer:If you answered that you are first, then you are
absolutely wrong! If you overtake the second person and you take his place, you are second!
Try not to screw up next time.

butdon'ttake as much time as you took for the first question,OK?
Second Question:

Take1000and add40to it. Now add another1000. Now add30.
Add another1000. Now add20. Now add another1000
Now add10. What is the total?
Scroll down for answer.....

Did you get5000?
The correct answer is actually 4100.
If you don't believe it, check it with a calculator!
Today is definitely not your day, is it?

I got three out od five but in question 2 the way you overtake the last person is by lapping them IF you are talking about stock car racing. I have done it and had it done to me at the race track. If you aren't talking about that kind of racing then forget about it cause I don't know LOL.

I always do well on these things which always used to upset my son to be ex. She has a college degree and I don't. It's not a matter of super intelligence,just cognitive thinking. You know that they are "trick questions" and then you try to complicate it, when in fact is is really simple. Take the math one for example. I bet there are people out there scratching thier heads and cursing thier calculator. .Everything is fine untill you get to the last number to add. At this point you are saying to yourself four thousand ninety, and you are correct, but because of the way we learn numbers your brain does not see it that way and when we add the last number: 10 we get a total of 5000. This is because of the cognitive difference of seeing the number written down and doing it in our head.
