Used to get loads of this crap in Maths at school.

Why?

I have never found or been presented with a real world situation where this skill is needed.

Only ever see it in crap internet iq tests and the like. Completely pointless.
Its a question on one of my other halfs DS games.

C - B = B means C = 2 x B
A x B = C means A x B = 2 x B means A= 2
A x 4 = D means D = 8
A + C = D means C = 6
A x B = C means B = C/A = 3

A = 2, B = 3, C = 6, D= 8

Life wasn't meant to be easy - but that doesn't mean you have to make it hard.
This problem reminds me that "life is like a ***** - when it's soft, you can't beat it - when it's hard, you get screwed!"
