The Question
Don’t rush it. The obvious answer is not always the right one.
A bat and a ball cost $1.10 in total. The bat costs $1.00 more than the ball. How much does the ball cost?
Choose before revealing the answer.
If the ball costs 5¢, the bat costs $1.05. Together they cost $1.10. The tempting 10¢ answer makes the bat $1.10 and the total $1.20.
The trap measures whether you check intuition before committing.Try IQ Run →
