No F'ing clue.
These are the type of questions I had to take for like 3 hours in an 8 part exam to get a basic accounting job in an up and coming company with good benefits. After about 1 hour I felt like walking out and telling HR to shove the tests up their you know what if this is what it takes to work there. These type of riddles have no bearing whatsoever if I can do the job or not and should be based on past experience and education along with a positive get er' done attitude.

Over 200 views but only 8 correct responses. The clue is in the statement about pre schoolers getting it faster than anyone else. Pre schoolers haven't learned math so it isn't a math problem; however, pre schoolers do know shapes and the shape that occurs in those problems is circles. For example, the number 8 has 2 circles. The clue to solving these kind of puzzles is to look for patterns.
