  5. I think it is the second one from the left, as it has nearly the same shape as the first

  6. Its the second one from the right. None of the aliens are dark, because only the non-aliens are dark. Only the non-aliens have glasses. Therefore, by the procses of elimination, it must be....... The Second One From The Right OR the 4th one from the left... DONT JUDGE ME!

    1. It is a probability question. The biggest value for probability is 1, which is 100%. When the probability is 100%, it means the event will occur. When the probability is 0, means we will not see the event occur.

  17. The logical reasoning is that if you add 2 + 8 + 8 + 9 it equals 27 if you add all the numbers after the = on all of them going across until it gets to 27you are left with the bottom 2 numbers after the = they are 0 and 2 if you add them together you get 2 so therefore 2889 = 2

  19. The maths quiz with the dots is 7 Because If you take the 3x3 grid in the 3x5 grid and put peter's solution there then add 3 horizontal lines on the leftover squares it adds to 7 and every other solution adds to 7 too
