Brain Teasers

This test does not measure intelligence, your fluency with words, creativity, or mathematical ability. It will, however, give you some gauge of your mental flexibility.

In the three years since this test was developed, few people have been found who could solve more than half of the 28 questions on the first try. Many, however, reported getting answers long after the test had been set aside particularly at unexpected moments when their minds were relaxed. Some reported solving all the questions over a period of several days.
Take the test as your personal challenge. 18 correct answers out of 28 = GENIUS

Instructions: Each equation below contains the initials of words that will make it correct. Furnish the missing words.
For example: 60 = M in an H --- would be 60 = MINUTES in an HOUR

1) 26 = L of the A
2) 7 = W of the A W
3) 1001 = A N
4) 12 = S of the Z
5) 54 = C in a D (with the J)
6) 9 = P in the S S
7) 88 = P K
8) 13 = S on the A F
9) 18 = H on a G C
10) 32 = D F at which W F
11) 8 = S on a S S
12) 200 = D for P G in M
13) 3 = B M (S H T R)
14) 90 = D in a R A
15) 4 = Q in a G
16) 24 = H in a D
17) 1 = W on a U
18) 5 = D in a Z C
19) 57 = H V
20) 11 = P on a F T
21) 1000 = W that a P is W
22) 29 = D in F in a L Y
23) 64 = S on a C B
24) 40 = D and N of the G F
25) 80 = D to G A the W
26) 2 = No. it T to T
27) 5 = V in the A
28) 2 = P in a P

If you are dying to know the answers, e-mail me. I'll be glad to furnish them. The answers were not given to us, nor were they available at the time when the questions were forwarded by my friend. My husband and I spent several hours to get 18 answers (thus WE prooved ourselves to be genius :) and agonized few more days since we couldn't get all the answers! We were finally able to finish the puzzle when someone went out of his way -he even generated a program - to get most of the answers (25, to be exact).
