Simple Math Puzzles

87....I went in backwards the first time. :steering:
 
Also there's another solution to this puzzle , if you count the spaces in front of the car and also in a parking lot with floors you get 87
 
If 9999 = 4, 8888 = 8, 1816 = 6, 1212 = 0, then 1919 = ?
 
I know the answer :D just how is a parking place, think about it in 3 d ... that's the trick, :p

I like your twist. -Every piece of data is in the question- (and should) have a value. --Now I need to learn how parking garage spaces are numbered in multi-levels.:rolleyes:
Admittedly an understanding of parking place numbering logic can be used. --But is there a -standard -of numbering parking spaces to follow from one level to another in all parking structures?:poke:
 
Well ****, guess I won’t be building a Space Shuttle!
 
I have always liked this kind of stuff and tend to solve a Sudoku puzzle.

1+4 = 5
2+5 = 12
3+6 = 21
8+11 = ?
1+4 = 5
5 PLUS 2+5 = 12
12 PLUS 3+6 = 21
21 PLUS 8+11 = 40

Okay, having never played Sudoku, I can see how this works but I was first looking at the math in LITERAL terms. In that context, it made no sense.

It is indeed a puzzle. In Sudoku numbers are not used mathematically. Just sequentially.
Letters can be used instead but only the first ten letters would work for the sudoku structure.
 
I am just wired in a different way. I take things literally.
That is why I crack up when I hear someone say "I'm going to take a ****". I think of a guy in a Porta Potty stealing turds.
When meeting people, some say How are you ? or How're you doing?
I actually answer the question and it confuses some people.
If someone says a job will take two weeks, I expect it done in 14 days.
This coffee tastes like **** ! Does it really?
I waited for you for hours. You got here at 4:00, I was here at 4:45.
I wouldn't touch her with a ten foot pole. Uhh, who carries a ten foot pole with them ??
