Is there an issue? It's perfectly logical to receive all information possible if it's being presented to you with no consequences. If there's no risk for receiving the additional clues, why wouldn't you take them?
Was that sarcasm? Because she'd want to be sure, right?

i didn't know 18 was a digit on a FUCKING SINGLE DIGIT NUMBER PAD
In the end it didn't matter. However, I did automatically eliminate all options that had a double digit number within.
It's a number on a single digit number pad
+LilSauce ?
LilSauce AHAHAHAHAHA
ikr so irritating
the visual confused me and made me think the digit pad only had numbers 1-9
I did the same thing. Luckily it only used numbers 1-9 for the answer.
No luck involved, a zero would be impossible after clue one.
Hes refering to the fact they listed 1-1-36 (implying that the keypad had numbers > 9)
what..? That was no implication. You simply work out the math of the first clue, filtering them out later for the ones that make sense to the keypad.
+kflo411 the keypad in the animation shows numbers 1-9 therefore it is implied you can only use those numbers
While certainly an interesting logic puzzle, which I did solve on my own, the conceit that Zara only asked for the third clue because she needed it is a bit shakey, as she may have just asked for it to give her companions more information.
Shakey like a pizza!
Yeah, that's why it's conceited. It's one of the givens at 2:23
Maybe they asumed they would have range when they get out
At 1:49 it says “If Zara could enter the passcode at this point [after knowing the first 2 clues] she would”.

Who needs math and logic anyway.
nerds
Alternate logic you can use:
*The third clue must be important.
*Therefore, there must be a wrong answer where the last two digits are identical.
*The only set of factors that meets that criteria is 1, 6, 6.
*If 1, 6, 6 is the wrong answer, there must be another set of factors with the same sum.
That's how I solved it.
Qwerty
There are a lot of riddles based on that. Stuff like figure out the age of three persons and the final hint is something like "my oldest daughter is playing the piano". Sounds completely unrelated but the "older" part is giving the important information.
@@meandmyself1600 Didn’t a previous thread say that that specific riddle could alternatively be answered by 1,4,9?
@@bensoncheung2801 I don’t think they took into account the second clue given, which is that the is that the sum of their ages equals the house number (and that the student said that wasn’t enough information to figure it out). 1+4+9 is 14, while 2+2+9 is 13.

This actually the Three Daughters problem. A classic.
A student asks his teacher: How old are your three daughters?
The teacher says the product of their ages is 36.
The student says this is not enough information.
The teacher says if you add them up you get my house number.
The student says this is still not enough information.
So the teacher says the eldest one plays the piano.
I knew that one!
Exact same riddle lol
i don't get it
Her saying “the eldest one” tells you that it must be the choice of 2,2,9 because if it were 1,6,6 there wouldn’t be an eldest one since the oldest are both 6

+creativekitty cat damn u
in step 1, they shoulda eliminated the codes with double digit 3rd number since the passcode only allowed for 3 digits total. So like it couldn't be 1*3*12 because that's 4 digits. Not that it mattered but still
I thought I was the only one....I'm like its a 3 digit code with a 9 number keypad no way I'm fitting 12, 18, or 36 in that XD.
I thought so as well.
I thought the same thing but the answer still doesn't change.
The puzzle never says anything about the code being limited to 3 digits.
+DrGerbils It doesn't have to, because it fits 1 digit per box. If it did fit 2 digits per box...how do I move on to the next digit box? Where on the keypad is the space/tab bar? If it were capable of 2 digits per box then it would be 6 digits meaning most importantly and finally where is 0? Because if it's 2 digits then there has to be a 0 in front of any number less than 10, and numbers with 0 like 10, 20,etc (Ex....A date written numerically is commonly written mm/dd/yyyy 8 digits. If today is March 3 2016 I'd have to put 03/03/2016). If it wasn't there then the number placed like for example the code 557 would then need to be typed 55, 55, 77 in order to move to the next digit place but the computer will see it as seventy-seven not seven. So no its 1 digit place per box because of the absence of 0 or some form of moving to the next box while filling in the space....sorry :p.

Zara should have inserted the wrong number, so she’d been thrown back in with the other two, then she could have said the right answer, and they could’ve escaped at night?!
Just Another Broken Thing yup,instead,Zara ditched the other 2 so that they could solve the riddle themselves.
That's what a normal person would do
Darn that Zara
Just Another Broken Thing Stolen comment
Why would she risk being thrown back into another dungeon, without any knowledge if they could sneak out at night, when she could save herself AND tell the others by leaving and telling them the password through the transmitter?
You are not a perfect logician ;)
clearly examine all buttons for fingerprints
Where will zara find flour
MORAY EEL that would take too long
Irish Virador you could just put it under the light of those electric Gates and examine any reflection
There will be people who got them wrong
And the fingerprints don’t give the order either
Hey Plays but will be able to use the second clue to determine what order it was in because we'll already know what buttons she pressed
How did the two others escape? The were still in the dungeon. They had no access to the hallways.
Edit: also why did she not say the combination out loud? It clearly said if she guessed the wrong answer, or said "ANYTHING Else". Implying, with the animation as well, mind you, that she could guess, out loud the answer, and if she happened to guess wrong, or SAID ANYTHING ELSE, she would be sent back to the dungeon. Obviously the dungeon is cutoff from the hallways, because why wouldn't she just get up and go back to the hallways again?

Yes. I would happily be the undead dictator wizard magician who ate the fire crystal and is somehow a cheating royal who can’t figure out what this troll wants. And learning about gold and silver coins inside a temple that will be found with Robo ant guards that have an ancient virus that are trying cross a river, after I eat some secret sauce while killing vampires that are pilgrims that are death racing with a huge indestructible blobs. With rebel supplies and mondrian squares over a bridge jousting with dragons and alien probes finding sea monsters guarding treasure and getting into jail, then fighting giant cats and werewolves. And collecting stolen rubies and counterfeit coins while going on a rescue mission across dimensions and time. On a airplane with pirates eating eggs and talking with Einstein and three gods. On lockers with planets and on those planets have prisoner boxes with endangered fish inside. AND ALL OF THAT...with a frog that can save you from that poisonous mushroom

Sir Koala lol me too
Just two issues with this riddle for me:
1. Like others have pointed, Zara could deliberately say it wrong once she knows the answer, get her thrown back to dungeon, and you three escape at nightfall. The matter of the fact that the other two CAN escape at nightfall makes the riddle moot.
2. On the second clue: "If Zara could enter the passcode at this point, she would." No, that's false conclusion. She might know the answer already on the second clue, but ask for the third clue anyways to help you two. Nothing says to me that this might not be the case.
That part where it says she could have entered the code after the second clue threw me off, because I thought that she already had the answer, but was asking for a third clue for the benefit of the listeners, not that she didn't yet have the answer.
2:23 clue number four would help you to clarify that
If you know the answer after two hints it benefits the listeners more to not ask for a third clue (It eliminates [2,2,9] and [1,6,6] instead of just [1,6,6]). Plus the listeners also get a huge benefit when you ask for a 3rd question when they know you wouldn't if you already had the solution.
That really depends, Bradley... If she knew the answer after the second clue, and she left right then and there, her companions would have 6 possible answers with no way to determine the right one. Since she doesn't know what the third clue is, that clue might've been exactly what they needed to narrow it down to 1 answer.
+Bradley Good point, however she does not know what the clue is before asking for it. That means can't know how many possibilities a third clue could eliminate. It would be in her best interest to ask for a third clue to eliminate as many as possible.
She knew what number hallway she went through. After adding up the digits, she saw that two of them were the same, 13, while the rest were different. Since she already knew her hallway number, she could have left, if all of the sums were different. However, knowing she went through hallway 13, she didn't know which combination if 13, therefore she had to ask for a third clue. She wouldn't have needed that third clue if all of the sums were different, because she went through one hallway, and she knew which hallway it was.
OMG! I'm soooo surprised! I actually did it! I solved the riddle all on my own!!!!

Same omg, I can't believe I solved this! amazing.
alright, and we're gonna totally ignore the fact that Zara almost ditched us and left us for dead.
look how easy we escaped at night. she had no excuse
This riddle I found it out by myself. The key is zara's change upon the third clue. Without it she can't determine the numbers and with it she can. Since the third clue is "large number is unique" there must be at least one potential situation "largest number in dual or more" suits all former preconditions thus blocked her solving with only 2 clues.
The only combination with largest number in dual is 1*6*6 and that leads to a sum of 13. All other potential solutions must follow this or got crossed out upon the second clue. And that remaining combination is 2*2*9.

"An attosecond is 1×10−18 of a second (one quintillionth of a second). For context, an attosecond is to a second what a second is to about 31.71 billion years. The word "attosecond" is formed by the prefix atto and the unit second. Atto- was made from the Danish word for eighteen (atten)."

or she asked for the third clue because she knew there wasn't enough info for her compatriots yet. In which case, game over, man! game over!
Or she asked the thrid clue because she didn't have enough info to get out herself after the 2 clues.
Yep
2:24 and look at #4
I like how they just assumed she would just leave them to die the second she had her own way to escape.
Jandalph Well, she's a perfect logician so she should leave whenever she knows the answer and not worry about her friends. So she would leave them to die. Luckily they could escape with her.
And this is why super villains always lose. They let their nemeses play logic games like this instead of just killing them right then and there and being done with it.

I love your profile picture, Finny is so cute~ (I still love Hetalia, crap)
I only wrote down the factors that included single digits since using 18 or 36 would make it a 4 digit code. I call bull shit.
why do you call bullshit if the answer was 2,2,9?
You can't solve it only using numbers 1-9. The possible codes you get are 334, 229, 149, and 236. All of those numbers have unique sums, making the third clue useless to you (original player would still be able to escape)
you forgot 166, making the third clue relevant.
Yeah, me too - the numberpad is drawn in a way that suggests a three digit code, so having to enter something like 36 as one of those doesn't make sense. Riddle still works without it though. ^_^
templarknight7 I forgot 229
You don't actually need to come up with every set of numbers that multiplies out to 36 in order to solve this. You just have to realize that 1-6-6 is the only one that the third clue lets us rule out, and then think of another way to get the same product and sum with three other numbers, that being 2-2-9.
I got it by a different way. I thought the girl deliberately asked for the 3rd clue (1-3) so that they can guess the hallway number.
I thought the same thing based off his wording, but for me, that left it unsolvable. I don't know how you could solve it an alternative way.
Looking at the keypad I (wrongly) assumed that all three numbers are single digit. So it can be 6 6 1 or 3 3 4 or 2 2 9. Since she new the answer by second clue, but went for the third clue to help other guys, it must be 3 3 4.
Spencer Geller she asked the third clue because 3 means she started from the first clue and ended in the third, i.e, 1 to 3 (1-3) which can be considered 13.
Sreeram S Nair coincidence
@@sreeharis7466 But that wouldn't help the other guys, as the third clue only eliminates (1,6,6) from the group! (2,2,9) would still be valid, too.
I'm happy cuz it's the first Ted riddle that I solved by myself.
Congrats!
Good job young man!!!
Same! I had no idea it was such a rush

DONT DO DRUGS DILEN
I was too bored to take a paper and look for it :'P
ya me too!
The numbers on the keypad only go from 1 to 9, so 18, 12 and 36 are not possible.
I don't like it when they do all this rubbish when they should just give the actually question straight away. It always causes problems like this
Minecraftster148790
It doesn't actually affect the solution. But it bothered me that he specified it was a keypad combination, and the pictures also showed keypads with 1 to 9, and then he includes two digit numbers in calculating the solution.
Even so, 2 2 9 is the only solution if you consider a 36 number keypad
Yeah i had a problem there, I thought they must be 1 digit numbers so I worked from there, I got the answer but then I watched the video, they have to explain that too
I have same question when i see the solution.
I thought Zara asked for the third clue regardless if she had found the combination using the first 2 clues, just because she wanted to make sure the other 2 would be able to figure it out correctly.
My guess is 3 3 4
Edit: Well at least I was honest about it
I've solved it and come up with the same solution they gave but to be honest I cannot find a logical way to demonstrate you're wrong, assuming that you are.
EDIT: Maybe, it's because you haven't considered the third clue. As said in the video, if she hadn't asked for the last clue she might have gone away sooner, but given that she did, the only possible solution is 2*2*9.
+Francesco Ribaudo
why not?
4+3+3=10
if zara had gone through hallway no: 10 i.e if the sum of the factors was 10 then 4 3 3 is the only possible combination of factors satisfying it i.e zaara need not ask for the third clue at all.
but she did ask for the third clue which means the sum wasn't 10 but some other number
[13 in this case] that had 2 or more possibilities.
2+2+9
& 1+6+6
it says at start the first one is smaller or equal so it cant be 4 3 3
+BossAlin3 yeah i meant 3 3 4
my point was to help eliminate factors.
Vaibhav Shah okey... still this video says that 13 is correct because it appears twice ... idk why would they use that logic thats what i dont understand lol
I did it!! OMG I DIDNT KNOW I WAS THIS SMART!
Well in this profile picture, I look like the smartest thing in the planet but in real life i look just like my profile pic.
Just kidding. This want too hard compared to others that i have tried
you and me both!
congrats, I also got it right.LOL
Armando Balcazar- I didn't bother. I like to watch them explain it and then you have that "Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" moment
Holy shit, I just guessed 2 2 9 and got it right.
Same lmao
lolll
Same!! First time I've ever got one of these right as well lol
same here, I'm proud of that DAMNIT
Putting it on my CV now 😂😂
there is a problem . if zara knew by the second clue the answer , and the puzzle maker gave more clues than needed but she chose to ask him about the 3rd hoping that she might help her friends figure out the code .
she would still be a perfect logician even though she didnot need the 3rd clue but still asked about it in hope that it will benefit her friends and the puzzle maker was generous into giving too much clues than needed.
the highest probability guess is still the 2 2 9 , but there is still a chance that it could be any of the others if zara wanted to help even though she figured it out a long time ago.
YES! I got it WRONG! :DDD Come to me, sweet, sweet release of DEATH BY MUTANT SALAMANDERS
I can't bear this burden any longer. I'm only a child. We're only three children. Fighting an endless fight, against an endless enemy, witnessing the collapse of mankind and its horrors day after day after day... This was my true riddle: _how can my body still linger when my soul has long been gone?_ Now, at long last, the answer has come to save me... or what's left of me. I was only a child. I was only a child.

the 9 digit keypad mislead meeeeeeee
Ik it did to evryone
it didnt matter because only 2 combinations had equal sums and neither had digits above 9
I don't even remember seeing a keypad.
how so?
I followed the visuals too much
If those guys could create mutant salamander and shit, they should have come up with a riddle that a dumfuck like me could not solve!
Nabin Kalauni So.. Literally any other riddle in existence
What if Zara just asked for the third clue to help her friends be able to escape
Why do they seem like Hazel, Frank and Leo from Heroes of Olympus when they were trapped in the colosseum..... hmm
i've read those books before
they're great written by rick riordan
Damn the guy with the ponytail actually does resemble frank
Hazel was my favourite
Siddharth B Prabhu Ψ I love those books and so true
Siddharth B Prabhu Ψ do you have Animo?
Ayy I guessed that shit and got it
Me too I just did the first factors that came to mind
Scott Hasselbrinck yeah same
yes bruh i was just like 9 times what equals 36 i got 4 and did 2×2 because that was left
I completely miss understanded it and said 336 cuz 3x3 is 6 and 6x6 Is 36 but I was far off
+Fiez Gizmo
3×3=9 lol
Ma names Zara therefore I live
Same 😂
no, your's is Zahra.
My name is Zara too
I COMMENT THE MOST INNOCENT THINGS AND THEN CAUSE BOUT 5 SHITSTORMS
MY SISTER'S NAME'S ZARA!
Above the keypad there's clearly space for a 3-digit number, so I assumed each number in the sequence was a 1-digit number (between 1 and 9). Luckily, I reached the solution anyways.
ZARYA IS STRONG AS A MOUNTAIN

I hate you. I was peacefully eating some chips until I read your comment, making me spit them all out. Kudos to you. I AM MOTHER RUSSIA
I want to hug you like big, fuzzy siberian bear

Finally I’ve actually solved a Ted Ed riddle.
I feel accomplished

Step 1: Confirm you have green eyes
Step 2: Escape in helicopter
Step 3: Use helicopter to attack the salamanders
You forgot about the "collect underpants" step.
I've been watching these riddles over and over and this is the first one I got. Gotta start somewhere. Oh, also TED, if you're looking for a guest speaker, I'm a certified genius now, I'd be happy to discuss my innovative mind.
I thought she didn't need the third clue. Why does it say she did on the wait screen?
oh, nevermind. This is why I prefer riddles in person, so I can ask clarifying questions without looking at the answer.

Knowing that she did need the third clue tells us that the hallway must have been #13, otherwise she would have solved it after listening to the first 2 clues, the third clue just let's you know the combination is 2-2-9 and not 1-6-6.
yeah, yeah, I know. I am the derp. :(
it's k, we all derp sometimes :)

You planted the damn large thing in her hair.
I thought it was 2 3 6, because I thought you couldn't have repeating numbers
And the last rule
Same
Same!
The vid said that the number before it could be equal to it
me too
I don’t care that this was posted 6 years ago, I SOLVED MY FIRST TED ED RIDDLE!!!!!!!!
