Answer With SolutionAnswer: 4
Solution:
You might want to solve it simply like this
First equation: Football + Football + Football = 18 => Football = 18/3 = 6
Second Equation: Wall Clock= 9/3 = 3
Third Equation: Table Fan * Table Fan – Table Fan = 6 => (Table Fan) x (Table Fan – 1) = 6
from 3×2 = 6 => Table Fan = 3
Thus Wall Clock x Football – Table Fan = 3 x 6 – 3 = 15
BUT, if you look carefully, it is not a simple math equation puzzle, football in last equation is different than other, wall clock in 4th equation having different time than the ones in second equation, similarly table fan has 2 blades than 3.
So how do we solve it?
In the first equation black marks on Football are 6, therefore Football value is : 6
In the Second equation clock shows 3pm.. so clock value is 3
In the third equation, table fan has 3 blades, thus having a value of 3, OR you can say a table fan with 3 blades has value 3, thus with 2 blades should have a value 2.
In last equation clock is 2 and Football marks are 3, and table fan has 2 blades
thus 2×3 -2 = 4

A superb mind teaser puzzle with 3 rules
You have to fill the boxes with numbers from 1-8 by following below mentioned rules.
Rule 1: Predecessor and successor can’t be besides. Example if we take number 3 in any box, than neither side of 3 can have 2 or 4.
Rule 2: Predecessor and successor can’t be upside or downside. Example: if we take 3 in any box, then the box above can not have 2 or 4, similarly box below can not have 2 or 4.
Rule 3: Predecessor and successor can’t be diagonally either.
Rule 4: c is smaller than f, else there can be 2 solutions.
And now there can be only 1 solution.
