fishermangeorgerando Posted August 14, 2011 Posted August 14, 2011 I made it P=0 T+E = 8 Q+O = 10 With the given clues, find the sum of the letters T R E E. (Each letter represents a number if you didn't know already) Have fun!

fishermangeorgerando Posted August 21, 2011 Author Posted August 21, 2011 Uhh. The answer is in numbers. Hint- Typing it out could help
pwagen Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 I can't see how this would be solvable, unless the solution is not at all related to math, but some other goofy idea. The only thing there we would have any use for is "T + E = 8". T could be 6 and E 2. Or T could be 5 and E 3. Let's say "Q + O = 10" is involved, in that the numbers represented by Q and O can't be represented by any other letter. Let's give them some random, working numbers and see what happens. T = 5, E = 3, Q = 8, O = 2. T = 1, E = 7, Q = 4, O = 6. Since both of these give different answers to T + E + E, and we still have no idea what R is supposed to be, I would say it's impossible to solve without more information. Unless I'm missing something vital.
TonyMcC Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 (edited) I can't see how this would be solvable, unless the solution is not at all related to math, but some other goofy idea. I think it is related to a "goofy idea" - hence my answer of 15. If I am correct, think "puzzle" not "math". Edited August 21, 2011 by TonyMcC
pwagen Posted August 22, 2011 Posted August 22, 2011 I think it is related to a "goofy idea" - hence my answer of 15. If I am correct, think "puzzle" not "math". Then I'm screwed. Looking forward to seeing the solution!
losfomot Posted August 22, 2011 Posted August 22, 2011 Then I'm screwed. Looking forward to seeing the solution! It is most definitely a 'goofy idea'. The answer is 15. and his hint completely gives it away.
TonyMcC Posted August 23, 2011 Posted August 23, 2011 On reflection, calling this a "goofy idea" is IMO rather unfair. It must have been from ideas like this that the German coding machine Enigma was developed. This machine was producing coded messages during WWII that were almost undecipherable. The hint definitely gave it away - so much so that I probably would not have produced the answer without it.

I did not mean it in a bad way... it is rather a neat puzzle... what I should have said was: 'It is most definitely not related to math'
rktpro Posted September 9, 2011 Posted September 9, 2011 If he wouldn't have given the hint so early, we would have been beating our heads all around for this.
John_gms Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 Give the value of R if you want to get this riddle solved in minutes! Anyway here's a link fullll of Bts ! http://www.iqtestexperts.com/brainteasers/
sultan Posted October 7, 2011 Posted October 7, 2011 I made it P=0 T+E = 8 Q+O = 10 With the given clues, find the sum of the letters T R E E. (Each letter represents a number if you didn't know already) Have fun! if we consider that letters starting from E up to T take the values 0 2 8 in series , then the values will be like this E=0 f=2 G=8 and so no..... this will give us the values of E=o o=2 p=0 Q=8 and T=8 which are the assumed values in the question
Faz Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 Wow I'm lost with this one. What do you mean by try typing it out? My minds stuck on thinking maths T R E E how do you make that as 15?
rktpro Posted November 2, 2011 Posted November 2, 2011 Wow I'm lost with this one. What do you mean by try typing it out? My minds stuck on thinking maths T R E E how do you make that as 15? Look for the number keys that are exactly above the letters T R E E and add them.
Faz Posted November 2, 2011 Posted November 2, 2011 Look for the number keys that are exactly above the letters T R E E and add them. Ah, got it. That's a good one.
