Let's see how sharp you are...

Answer the following 4 questions…which you have to answer immediately, without wasting time. OK, let us see how clever you really are…

Q 1: You are participating in a race. You overtake the second person. What position are you in?

Answer: If you have 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 mess up next time.

Q 2: If you overtake the last person, then you are?

Answer: If you answered that you are second to last then you are wrong again. Tell me, how can you overtake the LAST Person?

Q 3: Tricky arithmetic…try this one…do not use paper and pencil or a calculator.

Take 1,000 and add 40 to it. Now add another 1,000. Now add 30. Add another 1,000. Now add 20. Now add another 1,000. Now add 10. What is the total?

5000?

Answer: You are wrong again…the answer is 4100…if you don’t believe, check it with a calculator.

Q 4: Mary's father has five daughters: 1. Nana, 2. Nene, 3. Nini, 4. Nono. What is the name of the his fifth daughter?

Did you answer Nunu?

Wrong. Read the question carefully again…
