i really enjoy taking number tests, etc...just excercizing
my mind in general. some number tests are too indepth,
however i think this one is something that some may enjoy
solving, just takes a little math! ehhehe

enjoy - perhaps play Music is Math whilst solving =0)

i have a deck of cards from which some are missing. if i
deal them equally between 9 people, i have 2 cards to spare.
if i deal them equally between 4 people, i have 3 cards to
spare. if i deal them between 7 people, i have 5 cards to
spare. there are normally 52 card in the deck.

HOW MANY ARE MISSING?

And this shows that the well known theory about girls often
solving number tests while listening to BOC's Music Is Math
is true!
Sometimes they do it in pairs over the internet.
It is belived that they do it to excersise their minds.

You're all wrong.
9+4+7 people = 20 people
2+3+5 cards to spare = 10 cards to spare

20 divided by 10 is 2.
2 multiplied by 52 cards in the original deck is 104.. ta
da!

the answer is 104
