The tough brain-aching teaser is one which not a lot of people liked as historically maths problems are something we disliked at school, but some people managed to find the solution

People who love brainteasers will struggle with this one and only 5% of puzzlers can solve it.

The taxing riddle asks people what the solution is to a problem and the answer left many people stumped. The teaser which was shared by @shambles on TikTok asks the question: If 1+2=6 and 3+4=9 and 5+6=7 then 7+8=? It left many people's heads spinning and others did not even attempt to answer it. But one person on the quiz show came up with an answer and threw it out to the public.

He said: "10". Looking round the audience some members in the video were confused and others knowingly smiled as the answer was given. Just 5 percent of people can solve riddle by the One Percent Club. The answer was finally revealed after much head-scratching and gritted teeth. The solution to the problem was finally given and the penny dropped among members of the TV audience

Solution:

One (3) + Two (3) = 6

Three (5) + Four (4) = 9

Seven (5) + Eight (5) = 10

The answer 10, confused many people until they discovered the letters in each number are added together.

One person in the feedback to the tricky TikTok teaser said: "idk how I got it but I got 10. Didn’t even think about the letters" Another poster said: "I got ten but not by doing that!" Other posters responded to the tricky equation saying: "I got 10 but I thought the sequence on the right was going '+3,-2'." There were quite a few wrong answers in the comments section with some people suggesting the answer was 13 or 15.

But those who were successful were delighted. Other lucky responders said: "10 easy" And one person added: "I got 10 but my logic was answers were going up 3 down 2 so guess it was just lucky haha."
