Soviet problems on logic, which not everyone will cope with

Logic puzzles It is useful to decide at any age. After all, it is necessary to reflect and recall school (and sometimes student) times when you had to deal with this. And as an ordinary warm-up for the mind, such tasks are also quite suitable.

So today's editorial office. "Site" It offers readers several fascinating puzzles, each of which will have to think about. But the more interesting it will be to find the right solution to demonstrate to yourself that not all is forgotten and not all is lost.



Logic puzzles

1. As a first task, we suggest extending a number of numbers. You need to understand what the pattern is hidden here in order to put the right number after 2, 5, 8 and 14. Can you find the connection and put the correct numbers instead of the ellipsis?
   
   
   
   
2. Next, we offer a similar task, but here we will have to remember not only arithmetic operations. We have recorded all 10 digits, but they are located in a rather unusual order. What was the reason for the man who put the numbers in this way?

3. And finally, we offer a puzzle, where you need to figure out which of the four boys broke the window ball. There are four suspects: Valera, Sergey, Artem and Maxim. Each of the boys uttered one sentence, but it is known that only three told the truth. Can you tell who is to blame?

Tips to puzzles

1. After analyzing this series, we understand that each successive number is increased by the previous one and a unit is added to it. Indeed, 2 + 5 + 1 = 8, and 5 + 8 + 1 = 14. Then the desired number will be 8 + 14 + 1 = 23.
   
   
   
   
2. In order to solve the second puzzle, a calculator is not needed. You just have to guess that the numbers are in alphabetical order. And really: eight, two, nine, zero, one, five...
3. Three out of four boys told the truth. Therefore, Valera and Maxim, whom no one pointed out, immediately become beyond suspicion. If you suspect Sergei, then it turns out that both Sergey (who countered the accusation) and Maxim (who pointed to Artem) lied. Thus, we have one main suspect - Artem. And this version is confirmed by the words of Valera, Sergey and Maxim.
