So apparently this is given to kids who are about to enter PRIMARY school in Russia.

8809 = 6
7111 = 0
2172 = 0
6666 = 4
1111 = 0
3213 = 0
7662 = 2
9312 = 1
0000 = 4
2222 = 0
3333 = 0
5555 = 0
8193 = 3
8096 = 5
7777 = 0
9999 = 4
7756 = 1
6855 = 3
9881 = 5

lol and you actually believe that ?

The only thing given to russian school kids these days seems to be glue, a plastic bag and some methyl alcohol.

I guess 2581 = 2, but I'm still hungover from last night...

[rofl] filler

[Marlboro-oroblraM]

2581 = 2

the way i see it
6, 0, 9 = 1
8 = 2
and you just add them up

And you pull out this from your arse or you just returned from Russia?

No ****witt,
A. I work with enough russians and i know their work morals (85% of the people that work with me)
B. There are enough of them around here that do absolutly **** other than get wasted and group up and spit day and night while leaching on the social system.
C. I know enough of them. (which is enough)

Maybe things are different in the states, but here in Germany, the Russians are a ****ing problem.
So how about chilling the **** out and not acting as if you knew **** ?

So you base your opinion of an entire country's school system on some drunkard immigrants who came to Germany because they couldn't cut it back in Russia?

Even though my first comment wasn´t meant to take this thread off course (and was rather meant more tongue in cheek )
No, i´m basing my opinion on not one or ten, but litterly every russian i´ve met to date.

Well I think his original comment was meant as a joke but it's a fair point does anyone seriously believe that they give that kind of a math question to a child who has had no schooling? It's just dumb, why would you even test people before they go into primary school? "Ok, sorry you failed the primary school test you aren't allowed to enter the school system good luck with your life."

They might give that question to enter special schools called "gimnazia" which have a higher learning standards than regular schools. These schools are not that uncommon and I attended one when I was growing up in Russia. Children get taught math and reading in kindergarten or by their parents. I was taught by my mother to read and do simple math by the time I was 3 years old which is, again, not that uncommon.

GolemFrost, you might have had bad experiences with Russians, I don't like most of them either, but please don't generalize about a whole nationality of people.

Thank you or elaborate my thoughts.

Some people just don't know how they are good in science, and like to spit on them just becouse they meet uneducated, like to be drunk Russians.

BTW Russians have history, tradition, arts and culture better than most of the countries.

[SnareeWer]

well it is quite easy the answer is 2 as stated. My question is why no ,number 4

[GohJHM9k]

@ DK
Sry for my harsch comment,..
If you have access to SYB you might have seen my thread about what happend today
(My Lady crashed my car) and i´m still rather pissed.

But still i don´t like russians.
I think there´s this incompatibility between me and them that just makes a get-along impossible.

[Imalaycle]

Anywayyyyyyy back onto the subject. Yes the answer is 2... But none of you said WHY its 2

[Uzezqelj]

Anywayyyyyyy back onto the subject. Yes the answer is 2... But none of you said WHY its 2

Cause its the answer

[Alkanyadela]

The answer is 2 by the following logic

Numbers 1, 2, 3, 5, 7 count for 0 each

Numbers 0, 4, 6, 9 count for 1 each

Finally 8 counts for 2 each time it is encountered:

Proof:

8809 = 6 because: 2 + 2 + 1 + 1 = 6
7111 = 0 because: 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 0
2172 = 0 because: 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 0
6666 = 4 because: 1 + 1 +1 + 1 = 4
1111 = 0 because: 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 0
3213 = 0 because: 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 0
7662 = 2 because: 0 + 1 + 1 + 0 = 2
9312 = 1 because: 1 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 1
0000 = 4 because: 1 + 1 + 1 +1 = 4
2222 = 0 because: 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 0
3333 = 0 because: 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 0
5555 = 0 because: 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 0
8193 = 3 because: 2 + 0 + 1 + 0 = 3
8096 = 5 because: 2 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 5
7777 = 0 because: 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 0
9999 = 4 because: 1 + 1 +1 + 1 = 4
7756 = 1 because: 0 + 0 + 0 + 1 = 1
6855 = 3 because: 1 + 2 + 0 + 0 = 3
9881 = 5 because: 1 + 2 + 2 + 0 = 5
5531 = 0 because: 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 0
Finally:
2581 = ? because: 0 + 0 + 2 + 0 = 2

There you go

[SnareeWer]

Anywayyyyyyy back onto the subject. Yes the answer is 2... But none of you said WHY its 2

post 6 had a cut down formula.

[Imalaycle]

Its actually counting the "holes" in the numbers. Like 0 is one big hole so its 1. 8 is 2 holes... ETC
