It sounds simple, but solving this puzzle, which thousands of people have shared, requires concentration. You will need to dedicate all your attention and even pull your wits to count them all. But be alert; some things are not what they seem.
There's nothing like a visual acuity test or an annoying math problem to get everyone's attention. Surely during your childhood (also in adulthood, admit it), you have been asked the question "Where's Wally?" when trying to find the character in striped dress in one of the classic books.
Let us be honest, we all love visual acuity tests, concentrating until we can see something that, 'a priori' seems convoluted, but that causes us a feeling of superiority when we finally achieve our goal.
The new challenge that challenges your perception comes from the hand of social networks, like the vast majority. This time, the mission is to count how many 3s in the image given below.
This is what thousands of Internet users have tried to discover through Facebook. All part of the publication of a young German, Senad Hasani, who since he shared this riddle on his wall has added more than 250,000 comments and has been shared more than 3,700 times in fifteen days.
The image has aroused as much interest as versions and results. Yet, in the social network, almost nobody agrees. As if it were a pool, some say 14, others 20, others 18 or 19, and so on without reaching a specific number.
Well, the solution requires concentration and good eyesight. In total, there are 19. If you are one of those people who have only noticed the number that is dialled at the top and the phone's keys, you have to look a little more.
Clues and Solution
If you can see how many "3's" there are in the picture, then you can boast that you are an excellent observer. It sounds easy, but you have to give it a quick try to see that tiny details are quickly missed. It's these little details that have social media users panic-stricken. Most people find an answer lower than the actual number.
Common sense tells us that the number 3 should only appear on the numeric keypad that is displayed. However, we see that there is also the time, the state of charge of the battery, and the name of the person on the screen of the phone. Also, the "8" key looks a bit too much like a "3".
Now that we've given you some clues, do you still only find 9 or 13 "3's"?
The number 3 appears 19 times in all. So if you haven't found the correct answer, don't worry. Just keep practicing your observational skills.
Conclusion
Have you been able to figure out how many 3s in the image? Just in case your eyesight has not allowed you to distinguish it, in the following image, you will be able to identify them well within the red circles: In reality, a total of 19 numbers '3' are seen in this particular mobile, but some with a lot of imagination also count the three lines of the coverage and that of the Wi-Fi.
