Brain Teasers

A brain teaser is a form of puzzle that requires thought to solve. It often requires thinking in unconventional ways with given constraints in mind; sometimes it also involves lateral thinking. Logic puzzles and riddles are specific types of brain teasers.

Here is an example:

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

And another example:

Can you figure out what each capital letter stands for in these puzzles?

18 H on a G C

24 H in a D

60 M in an H

26 L in the A

64 S on a C B

52 W in a Y

With a little thought and concentration, you can solve this brain teaser.

Good luck!
