We have a new task for you that will test not only your ability to think, but also your ability to look into things. You need to find 99 in this picture. When you first look at this picture, it looks like the numbers are neatly arranged inside blue circles. A lot of the numbers that are shown are either “69” or “96.” In the middle of them, though, is a single “99.” To find it, you need a sharp eye and a systematic technique.
Figure out the pattern In this picture, the numbers are set up in a grid. Each number is inside a blue circle that is the same size all around and has white numbers on it. Because they are rotationally symmetric, the numbers “69” and “96” look a lot alike. This resemblance can lead to misunderstanding, making it harder to find “99.”
You can make the grid more useful by checking row by row or column by column instead of looking randomly because the grid is organized.
Look at the picture one row at a time to quickly find the odd number.
One of the best ways to find the one that doesn’t fit is to go through each row one by one.
To move across each row, start in the upper left area and work your way across.
Look at each number very carefully and make sure it’s “69” or “96.”
If you see a number that doesn’t look right, take a moment to carefully look it over.
Take a deep breath.
If you use your peripheral vision, your brain can understand what you see faster. Do not focus too much on each number. Instead, slightly relax your gaze and let your eyes automatically pick up on any number that does not fit the main pattern. Because “99” stands out physically, your brain may automatically tell you that it is different when you look at it more closely.
Try to find changes.
Since the numbers “69” and “96” are used a lot in this picture, train your eyes to find differences between them and “99.” Here are some very important things to think about:
The digits in “99” are the same, but the numbers in “69” and “96” are different. “99” keeps its unique shape no matter how it’s turned, unlike “69” or “96,” which can be turned and still look like each other. An odd number like “99” will stand out in an organized grid because it doesn’t follow the trend.
To find “99” in this picture, you need to be patient, pay attention, and follow a plan. You can quickly find the secret “99” by looking row by row or column by column, using your peripheral vision, and noticing changes between numbers. You’ll find it in the end if you give yourself time.
Here is the answer if you haven’t found it yet.
