Question of the Week? - Muhammad Adnan Arshad - 01-20-2006
Check your Arithmetic Ability
Note This must be done in your head only. Do NOT use paper and pencil or a calculator. Try it.
Take 1000 and add 40 to it.
Now add another 1000.
Now add 30.
Add another 1000.
Now add 20.
Now add another 1000.
Now add 10.
finally multiply the sum with Zero (0).
What is the TOTAL/AGGREGATE?
SUGGESTED ANSWER
I know that you get 5000? Your Answer is Absoutly WRONG.
The correct answer is actually 4100. Don't believe it? Check it with your calculator!

I think my answer was 5000 when I was first asked this interesting question. this time i concentrated more and got it right.

I asked the same question to a friend of mine, studying Law, and according to him "I confused teo digit numbers with 3 digits, e.g. when you had to add 40 I thought we supposed to add 400 - I know silly me!"
- Muhammad Adnan Arshad - 01-23-2006
WOW!
great mathematicians-cum-accountants here .....
NO NO .... LEGENDS of course
;-)
The correct answer is ZERO (0).
READ IT CAREFULLY
"finally multilpy the sum with Zero (0)"

Adnaan Badsha, you edited your post and inserted (finally multiply the sum with Zero (0)) only after when everybody, like me, had proved that he was genius.
- Muhammad Adnan Arshad - 01-24-2006
OOO HANIF ASIF, after a failure in the paper of "CA-Basics", now you are really pass now in your arithmetic IQ test. I was convinced by intelligence of your all already, but I thought that why don't I check all of you more?
YOU GOT PASSED..... YOU ARE INTELLIGENT GUY INDEED.
