Can you spot the 690 among the 960s in this picture? Credit: Quizgecko
An image created by the educational website Quizgecko contains the number 960 repeated 272 times.
However, one of the numbers listed is slightly different from the others, can you spot it?
You are said to have impeccable eyesight if you can spot a strange one in less than 30 seconds.
So set your timers and open your eyes to see if you can beat time.
All numbers are printed in white font on a red background, including odd numbers.
We can reveal that the messed up number is 690 and is hiding in plain sight.
Despite appearing in front of your nose, the impostor is almost impossible to spot.
If you find it difficult, we recommend that you focus on the right side of the image.
Carefully scan the columns and rows, focusing on the beginning of each number.
If you still can’t locate the 690 among the 960s, pay special attention to the lines in the middle of the image.
Anyone can see clothes, but you have 20-20 vision if you can spot a diamond ring in a messy bedroom
Keeping in mind our previous advice to look towards the right side of the image, see if you can spot the 690 in the narrowed area.
If you did not spot an odd number, count five columns from the right edge of the picture.
Now count eight rows from the top of the picture and you will see 690.
For all those still having difficulty, the number is circled in the answer key below.
