Brain Teasers - Creative Thinking and Problem Solving This exercise is simply for fun. It is based on a test that was developed many years ago to measure your mental flexibility and creativity. I have included 23 puzzles on this page as in the original test . Very few people have been able to get all of the answers at their first attempt . Some take days to get them all right. If you want to compare yourself with friends or family, print this page and set yourselves a time limit ( I suggest 30 minutes) and see how many of the puzzles are solved by the participants. Ratings and answers to follow. Instructions: Each number is followed by initials of the words that make the correct phrase. Find the missing words Example: 26= L of the A Answer : 26 Letters of the Alphabet 1 = W on a U ________________________________________________ 12= M in a Y ________________________________________________ 54= C in a D (with J)__________________________________________ 1000 = W that a P is W_________________________________________ 3 = BM (SHTR) ________________________________________________ 4 = Q in a G ________________________________________________ 5 = D in a ZC ________________________________________________ 57= HV_________________________________________________________ 64= S on a CB__________________________________________________ 88= PK_________________________________________________________ 90 = D in a RA________________________________________________ 200 = D for PG in M____________________________________________ 7 = D of the W ________________________________________________ 8 = S on a SS ________________________________________________ 9 = P in the SS________________________________________________ 1001=AN _______________________________________________________ 32= DF at which WF_____________________________________________ 11= P on a FT ________________________________________________ 12= S of the Z ________________________________________________ 24= H in a D___________________________________________________ 29= D in F in a LY_____________________________________________ 13= S on the AF________________________________________________ 18= H on a GC__________________________________________________ If you have fun with this, try creating your own puzzles using different numbers and words.
