problem # 1  answer I believe is 96

problem # 2.  there are several different answers possible.  If the water is running full force bucket #1 will fill first as it will overflow as more water coming in than going out as the tap pipe appears to be larger than the drain pipes. .  if not at full force then bucket # 3 will fill first as it has no outlets.  So it depends on coming  and going flows.

Well, all of us who are too broke to go see a lady are just killing time with goofy puzzles until it's time to get together with the Palm sisters (Rosy and Sweaty).

Here I fixed it...

I'm sure there's some boys in high school that might disagree!  

Just remember, having a Popeye arm on only one side doesn't look too good.  Make sure to change things up regularly!

IMHO 4 will fill up first because 2 will never fill up as water continues to flow to 7 which has a leak and 3 leaks to 4 as 5 backs up and forces more water to 4.  In other words, water seeks the lowest level and path of least resistance.  That's my story and I am sticking to it.

Both pipes leaving #3 are blocked.

And the answer is....3.

Look at which pipes are blocked so a bucket will never see water and which bucket has an opening in the bottom of the bucket so it will never fill and the bucket seeing it will never fill.

I think Tank #1 will get filled first. It gets the water before the other tanks do. If the water from the spigot comes out fast enough, tank #1 will fill before it has a chance to drain into the other tanks

Tank #3 will fill before tank #2 because tank 3 is smaller than tank number 3.

Tank 7 will fill but it appears to have a hole at the bottom and will not hold water.

 

I think the answer is tank #1 but need more information to make an educated guess.

Its 25.

You have to multiply before you  add....

2×10 +5... 😝

my math is a little rusty and I am no genius so here goes

3x(pistons) = 30  so piston = 10

1(p) + 2(tires) = 20  so tires = 2(t)=10         thus tires + 5

1 (t) + 2 (shocks) =9  thus   2(s) = 4  thus s = 2

lastly 5+2+10 = 17

this doesn't seem entirely right as this is grade school math and doesn't take a genius so maybe you fooled me.  wouldn't be the first time in math or this hobby

It's only half the piston in the last equation so it's 1

The answer is 15 :) multiply the value of the piston (10) to half the value of 2 shocks (value is (1) since there is only 1 shock present), then add the value of the tire (5).  10x1=10.  10+5=15

 

I hope I passed ;) lol

Good catch on the piston I missed that too. I think the answer on this one is 5+1x10 = 60.

Nope. Megan is correct - multiplication is performed before addition. One of those pesky math rules.  Answer is 15.

yes the answer is 15.  I missed the multiplication........  going too fast.....  sometimes that can be the problem even in the hobby!!!

 

5 + (1x10) =15

I'm gonna have to buy into 15 as well. This one is a relatively tough one. On the others I got bucket 3, but even tho it's explained to me 10x over I still have a tough time getting to 96, but that is the correct answer I believe.

Ask my phone( which I know is smarter than me) about the math multiplication rule and yes it's true no wonder my checkbook never balances oh well I guess you can teach an old dog new tricks. A fun exercise too bad I don't points for not getting anything right😊🤔

The only stated question is 8+11=?. That is now and always will be 19. The rest of the statements are just a diversion to distract one into wrong answers -  96 being one!! 😀

The object in question is a funny looking piston. Looks more like an oil filled coilover shock absorber.
