Let us know in the comments section below! We’d love to hear from you.7. December 31 (yesterday, last year, his birthday): 26.December 30 (day before yesterday, last year): 25.That means both yesterday and the day before yesterday had to be last year. Which means that yesterday was his birthday.īut at some point this year, he turns 27. Since he’ll be both 26 and 27 this year, the day before yesterday had to be last year. If next year, he will turn 28, this means that, at some point this year, he will turn 27. The wording in this one is especially important, because at first glance, this sounds impossible.īut if you look at the key word in what the man says - “turn” - the puzzle starts to unravel.

That means it’s 8 and 2 for the second and third digits. If the first digit is three less than the second digit, it can’t be 4 and 1, because that would be 4 minus 1, or 1 for the first digit, and the first and third digits can’t be the same. That leaves only two options for those digits: 4 and 1 or 8 and 2. We know the second digit is four times as big as the third. No worries, though! We’ve got you covered. This is a fairly simple one, but if you’re unfamiliar with brain teasers, or uncomfortable in general with number puzzles, it can be off-putting. The second digit is four times as big as the third digit, while the first digit is three less than the second digit. Today, we’re going to share not only the solutions, but how we got there!
