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?

B, the answer is B.

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.

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

I think it's June 17th.

The answer is that Cheryl is kind of a bitch. Bernard and Albert didn't ask for a list of 10 possible dates to guess from. They just asked her for the date she was born on.

Ah, so she tells Albert the month, and Bernard the day. This wasn't very clear from that broken English.
Posted on 4/13/15 at 12:54 pm to PuntBamaPunt
I'm saying June 17. It has to be in a month where only one of the days possible is shared by another month and it's the day that is shared.

July 16, and the horse's name was Friday.
