If You Like Puzzles, Try Some of Ours . . .

Many Mensans love to tackle mental puzzles like the ones below. Some you may find easy, others you may not. If you can solve them, you might be one of the five million Americans eligible for Mensa.

Not all questions would be found on an IQ test. The answer to some may represent acquired knowledge in a specific area.


1.

What number is one half of one tenth of one fifth of one tenth of one thousand?


2.

Fill in the missing number. Follow the same logic as the other examples.



3.

There is an eight letter word in the box below. Find the word by starting at the right letter and moving clockwise or counterclockwise, using each letter only once.



4.
