Are you smarter than a Singaporean 14-year-old?

Show your work.
According to Singapore news agency Mothership.sg the question was part of a Singapore and Asian Schools Math Olympiad test paper, which is aimed at the best 40 per cent of students. In any case, Singapore is also always top, or nearly top, internationally for secondary maths also. So, I rephrase the question: are you smarter than a Singaporean 14-year-old?

Is this the whole question?
That makes no sense to me.

Those are normal names in Singapore?

may 19
she tells albert the month and benard the day.
the only day represented only once is the 19th.
since Benard now knows then albert also knows.
The use of the word respectively is key so it is more of a grammar test than a math test.
However, the use of the word "too" should have been "either" grammatically.

Cheryl Albert and Bernard, idk if I've ever heard more American names.

May 19th, that wasn't even remotely close to hard.

Bernard would have known right away if the date was the 19th because there would only be one choice.

yet no one has shown or explained work....

nope. neither know the birthday at first. Bernard would immediately know since there is only one 18th option.

Yes they are normal names. The country is very westernized.

So Albert knows the month - one of only 4 months listed (May, June, July, August)
Bernard knows the day - one of 6 days listed (14-19)
That's all I got so far
