Can you help with these trick math lateral thinking problems? Please?!


Question: At a local infant school the teacher gave a few math problems for hw. The nest day the teacher pulle Tom out and told him that he had all of his wrong. These were the problems sets.
10+7=5
9+6=3
11+5=4
8+11=7 But Tom was also right how was he right?

And another one- A man was exploring a mountain when he slipped and fell. He was 150 feet from the summit when he slipped but he was at the top after the slip. He did not climb the rest of the way and he was not lifted to the top by colleages. How did he slip to the top?
Clue 1. He was on the same mountain and the top was above him
2. he was not supported by a ballon filled with hydrogen or helium
3. no ropes or pulleys were used
4. no thermals were involved

These questions maybe trick ques or just lateral thinking.
