Second Question: If you overtake the last person, then you are...?
Answer:
If you answered that you are second to last, then you are wrong again.
Tell me, how can you overtake the LAST person?!
You're not very good at this are you?
Third Question: Very tricky math!
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.
What is the total?
Did you get 5000? The correct answer is actually 4100.
Don't believe it? Check with your calculator! The decimal sequence
confuses most peoples brains, which always jumps to the highest
decimals (100's instead of 10's).
