maths lesson 1.01 : Algebra, for all those that hate it.
as Im working from home, means my maths brain is still turned on :p
If you can follow my maths below, it shows how to come at 143547
ignore the '+' signs, it essentially just means use all 3 numbers
so,
1st number assign A (5)
2nd number assign B (3)
3rd number assign C (2)
then;
then in each answer,
D = the first pair of numbers = A x B (ie first line, 5x3) = 15
E = second pair of numbers = A x C (5 x 2) = 10
third pair of numbers = adding the 1st & 2nd pair of numbers D+E then subtract B
so (15 + 10)-2 = 25-3 = 23
so then our mystery number is (7x2)=14, (7x5)=35, & (14+35-2)=47

.
I cant upload pics at the moment, or I'd post a pic of my pad scribble to show I didnt google it ;)
 
60

NUMBER 1,, If the trainers are worth 10 each =30

NUMBER 2,, boy + boy plus the trainers = 20 so trainers=10, 2 boys are worth 5 each =10,,,, 10 + 10 = 20

NUMBER 3,, One boy = 5 so those other 2 things =8 so they are worth 4 each.

NUMBER 4,, One trainer =10 + One Boy 5 = 15, Times it by the Brown thing = 4 So that's 15 X 4 = 60.

Ooooops No it's not it is 20,

Because if a pair of trainers is worth 10, One trainer is worth 5 Plus the Boy =5,, 5+5 = 10 multiplied by the brown thing which is 2,, So that's 10 X 2 = 20,

LOL
