I'm so crap at stuff like this.

Know what you mean . . .

Though no good at naths I can work out most progressions and sequences in my head - can't find one here. If it is a "truck" question I am lost.

Begining to think that the there is no valid answer! Or any answer is as valid as any other. That is the trick here.
I'll give you a clue.
Imagine you're driving.
Go into each parking space one at a time, and count each time.

Er, count the numbers of spaces? Or add the numbers? Der...
No.
But I see where I went wrong. I forgot to tell you to go reverse in each parking space and enter the next parking space. Each time you enter the parking space you will see the answer, or the pattern.

If you back up from that parking space where the car is right now, what number will you see through your windshield?

What's not to like about puzzles this sort?...........Hmmmm.

*None of the numbers are prime.
*All are divisible by 2 and only two.
*The last four, left to right are differences of ten
*The left two also have differences of ten
I am trying to hard to figure out something that may be all too simple

I will give the parking space a wild ass guess for the number 7 based on the previous capricious noodling. Also  let us consider that the goober who laid out the space numbers could have been high on Crack or something.

Alright Bruno, enough of the suspense. Tell us WTF the answer is.

You're over analysing it, Icarus.  ;)

The answer is simple, very simple.

xSP, I do tend to read things into evidences that may not be relevant.  Result of my engineering mindset that requires the consideration of all potentially rational possibilities.

I defer to your learned council.

I think those more mathematically inclined might take longer to see the answer. I sent the puzzle to my mother who tried for a long time to solve it, fixated on scribbling on a piece of paper and trying to work it out, instead of looking at the puzzle from another angle.

Yeah I got it now, my daughter (age eight) explained it to me....

When I came across this quiz it noted that most children get it right away, adults tend to over analyze it a bit ;D

Out of the mouths of babes


I am shamed for failing to see the simplistic solution.  :hooked:

I do contest the advice to look at the numbers from the drivers point of view...unless the driver has autism or as a mirror image.  Fun fact....mirrors reflect left to right, not top to bottom images. Wait a minute.... That might do it. ??????
