The Number Pattern
Trivia brain teasers have some element of trivia in them, but they are not just pure trivia questions.
When is the following true?
11+5=16
Add 7 more and it becomes 13.
Answer
In a game of Black Jack.
An ace is originally counted as 11 points, but if a card is received that causes the total to go over 21, the ace can be converted to one point.
