Unscramble and Learn LIFE Lessons
Each of the Sayings ( a LIFE Lesson) is scrambled in terms of letters and words in the
Saying. Your task is to unscramble each letter and words in the Saying eventually to
reveal the entire Saying upon which you can reflect to learn an important life lesson. An
example is given below:
ktirse | het | si | tho | iwhel | noir
English Proverb
When we think and scrutinize each word in the proverb, we can unscramble as follows:
strike the is hot while iron
Unscrambling the whole sentence we get an English proverb that carries a useful
message:
Strike while the iron is hot

Math Puzzle 1
Based on the Picture,
Can you solve the math puzzle
formed of Cock, Cat and Horse
What is the final Answer (?)
Show your basis.
Answer
From Equation 1: 3Cock =
6 => 1Cock = 2
From Equation 2: Cat +
Cock = 7
=> Cat = 7 – Hen = 7 – 2 = 5
From Equation 3: Horse –
Cat = 76 => Horse = 76 +
Cat = 76 + 5 = 81
Thus Horse + Cat + Hen =
81 + 5 + 2 = 88
Final Answer 88

Math Puzzle 2
Show your
calculation to
get at the height
of the Table.
Answer
Let’s assume height of the
table is T and cat is C and R of
tortoise.
let’s write down the equations
T + C – R = 170cm
T + R – C = 130cm
add both the equations
2T + C – R + R -C = 170 + 130
cm
2T = 300cm
T = 150cm
So the Height of the table is 150 cm
