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
