Question

The following question it puts forth you:

25 - 55 + (85 + 65) = ?

Then, you are told that even though you might think its wrong, the correct answer is actually 5!

Whats your reaction to it? How can this be true?

Answer 1

If you read the question again, you will probably notice the slight trick used in this question.

25 - 55 + (85 + 65) = 25 - 55 + 150 = 120

Now, 120 is also equal to 5!

5! = 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 = 120
Yes, we were talking about 5! (factorial) and if you read the question, thats what is written there.
