7 thoughts on “Updated(Solved): witch broom wand math riddle”
the answer to the riddle is not 213. If you look closely at the first equation the witch is carrying a wand and a broomstick in the last equation she is not. So if a wand is 7 and a broom is 3 the witch in the last equation is only worth 15-10 so 5. So the final equation should actually be 1 broom + 1 WItch without wand or broom x 2 wands = 3 + 5 X 2 X 7 = 73. Please correct me if I am wrong in math use of BEDMAS and deduction.
The answer is not 73. Its undefined! It is unclear what the images represent. V+W+V =12. Does the “W” represent two “V”s or a “W”? Broom + Paint brush + broom?

Thanks Michael, you are absolutely correct! We will update the answer today, giving credit to you, ofcourse 🙂
The part where it shows 3 brooms =12, makes the brooms each equal to 4!!! So a witch with no broom or spoon would be 4.
4×7=28. 28+4=32.
The middle broom though has 2 so how can that equal 12? Surely that should be 16 not 12
the middle broom group if you look closely is actually 2 brooms
1broom + 2 brooms + 1 broom= 12 so divide 4 into 12 and the answer is 3 per broom (1 X3)+ (2X3) +(1X3) = 3+6+3 =12
