It's actually the same word for "search" both times but it's written phonetically in the count search for some reason.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1091979517567705761.post-83197122045250085032016-08-04T08:45:14.421-05:002016-08-04T08:45:14.421-05:00I think I've got Puzzle 3: Kazu. Each puzzle ...I think I've got Puzzle 3: Kazu. Each puzzle that contains apples and oranges is asking a different question. For example, find the 2x2 (or 3x3) box containing more/less/the same number of apples and oranges. Using Google translate, it is easy enough to figure out if the question is asking for the same number or less. From what I can gather, Google is translating the word meaning "more" into the English word "cover." So questions 25-30 are asking for the 2x2 box containing:<br />25. same number of apples and oranges<br />26. more oranges than apples<br />27. fewer oranges than apples<br />28. more apples than oranges<br />29. fewer apples than oranges<br />30. same number of apples and oranges<br /><br />Questions 31-36 are asking the same questions in the same order for the 3x3 box.<br /><br />Questions 37-42 are asking for the difference in the number of apples and oranges in each box. So if the difference is 1, the box either contains one more apple than oranges or one less apple than oranges.<br />37. the difference in apples and oranges is 1<br />38. the difference is 2<br />39. the difference is 0<br />40. the difference is 1<br />41. the difference is 2<br />42. the difference is 0<br /><br />Hope this helps!<br />- JulieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
