Some coworker forwarded it.
From puzzle-maker Rudolfo Kurchan in Argentina: If 5=4, 7=5, 8=1 and 26=9, what does 12 equal? |

Well, except for the 8=1, they are showing the number of letters in the number F-I-V-E = 4 S-E-V-E-N = 5 T-W-E-N-T-Y-S-I-X = 9 So except for the 8=1, I'd say 12=6 I guess tag for answer next week, then. |
