You are an International Jewel thief. You are going for your last big score before you retire. You are trying to access a vault that holds the Hope Diamond as well as the Pink Panther Diamond. You have already foiled the security system and are standing unnoticed in front of the vault. The vault is opened with the proper code input into the electronic keypad below.

Lucky for you, the eccentric owner of the vault keeps the "combination" written on a piece of paper in his desk at his office… and you have already acquired it. However, the contained message is somewhat cryptic.

"Open with a two, but leave the four"

What keys will you press to gain access to the treasure?

Do either of you care to provide the logic behind your answers?


do you care to answer my question, how many numbers you looking for?? :P

2nd guess,
4,4
because there's 4 words each side of comma, if you count a as a word anyway. :D

:popcorn:
Nice try terry… but… both guesses incorrect.

do you care to answer my question, how many numbers you looking for?? tongue.gif

Available information already provided. :P
"Open with a two, but leave the four" 12, 15, number of letters or 4,4,1,3,3,5,3,4 again number of letters but for each word this time. :popcorn:

don't see where you say how many numbers are in the code combination.. tongue.gif

You may have a little trouble getting in the vault then. :P

another go then,

2,3,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,1


Care to provide reasoning?

"open with a two",
so started number combo at 2 and pressed every one.
"but leave the four"
except number 4

:popcorn:
“Open with a two, but leave the four” has absolutely nothing to do with the numbers shown on the tile. They want you to draw a number 2 out of the tiles you press, leaving 4 unlit. Click on all three buttons on the top row, the 6 in the second row, all three buttons in the third row down, the 10 in the fourth row, and all three buttons on the bottom row thats my shot Jimbo1

1,2,3,6,9,8,7,10,13,14,15

:clap:
