I expect all you clever lot have seen this before but I will give it a go - It had me perplexed.

Add a single line to the puzzle below to complete it.

10 10 11 = 10.50

Good luck

well you could put a line through the = to make 101011 doesn't equal 10.5 but I guess that's not the answer you're looking for

Well I was convinced someone would post answer straight away - just shows how wrong you can be. By the way I hope it is OK for me to post this - was not really sure ifi t was only moderators that were allowed - I do not not have many tokens to give but I will give 40 tokens to the first with the answer - BTW I only have about 40 tokens so I think this is very generous on my part - LOL - will have to post for England to make them up again.

I sussed it a while back, was waiting to see if anyone else wanted a go

put a horizontal line on top of the second 1

10 TO 11 = 10.50

you can hang on to your tokens if you like, I'm not really sure what they're for anyway so you might as well keep them

It was a great Question and please, if you have any more, feel free to post them

I've donated 100 tokens to you for your effort

The tokens used to be required to play the games on the old Message board... now, they are just more of a status Symbol

Well Done Nitrambur...and there I was, trying to think in binary

To err is human. To ARRR is pirate.

Well done Nitrambur - I will pass on the 40 tokens to you. Many thanks Nutty for the extra tokens - if I get any more like this I will post. Hope it had some of you scratching your heads for a while.
