I'm posting one puzzle, riddle, math, or statistical problem a day. Try to answer each one and post your answers in the comments section. I'll post the answer the next day. Even if you have the same answer as someone else, feel free to put up your answer, too!

Logic Number Puzzles
If each of the following equations is true, what is each letter? The rules are: (1) all the variables are equal to integer values between one and the number of variables in the puzzle, and (2) none of the variables are equal to each other. For example, if there are six variables, each will equal a number from 1 to 6. Since no variable equals another, all six values will be used.
A=3
ReplyDeleteB=2
C=1
D=5
E=6
F=4
Simple algebra and some logic.
Aw, I was just about to say that!
ReplyDeletejust as don says.
ReplyDeleteAnd, of course, I agree with you all:
ReplyDeleteA = 3, B = 2, C = 1, D = 5, E = 6, F = 4
