    Can you Pay Attention To Details?

    1. You are competing in a race and overtake the runner in second place. What Place are you? What place are you if you pass the last place runner?



    2. Take 1000. Add 40. Add another 1000. Add 30. 1000 again. Plus 20. Plus 1000. And plus 10.

    A couple of things here...

    The second part of the race question is ambiguous for numerous reasons. First, it is questionable whether you should assume that you are in second place from the first part of the question when answering the second part. If you assume that you are in second place, the assumption follows that you are on some sort of repeating course, such as a typical high school or college track, in which case after passing the last place runner you would still be in second place. I cannot see any reason why this would not be a valid reading of the question.


    The math question seems endlessly interpretable. "take 1000" for instance could imply that you are starting at -1000. It could also be interpreted non-mathematically.. as in.. don't do anything with this because "take" is not really a mathematical term.

    "add another 1000" could be interpreted as add 1000 to the previous "add 40" it could also be interpreted as add 2000 by assuming that you are adding "another" 1000. "1000 again" could also be interpreted to be non-mathematical as in "Look! 1000". Or just added into the equation.

    I came up w/ various answers dependent on how I was looking at the problem.. 4100 was one of them, but I'm just saying.

      A couple of things here...

      It is your unreasonable analytical approach to a simple riddle that is supposed to be read and understood AS IT IS WRITTEN. Nothing more, nothing less, nothing assumed (at least nothing pertinent to the solution or answer.) Just pay close attention to details, and try not to miss any, which I am sure you would say you never do; actually, you’d be surprised at the common mistakes people make. That’s what makes these things fun.
      Now, with nothing to be assumed, if you pass another runner, you obviously were behind him, meaning he couldn't have been in last place.
      Therefore, the answer is that a runner passing the last place runner is impossible.
      Onto the next one… I actually laughed out loud when I read your comments about the math question. Are you for real? You are getting carried away with your "could be interpreted as" and "assuming.” Take 1000 simply means you are going to start with the number 1000; if it meant start with -1000, it would say start with -1000; how on earth could 1000 imply -1000? Add another 1000 does mean add 1000 to the previous 40 that you were supposed to have already added to the 1000 that you started with. How could it possibly be interpreted as add 2000, and why would you add another 1000 more times than it says? And why would you "assume" or even consider that it "could be interpreted" that the words "take" and "again" were simply nonsensical non-mathematical jibberish thrown in amongst all of those "adds" and "pluses" in the other steps?
      No one is trying to trick you...let it go. These riddles trip you up when you miss details, not misinterpret them. They are usually written based on a little tidbit of knowledge of how the human brain processes information, designed so that most people give a wrong answer, and usually the same wrong answer. So stop feeling the need to defend yourself for not arriving at the correct answer; you're missing the point and taking the fun out of it.
