Singaporean TV presenter Kenneth Kong shared it on his Facebook page, saying that it “causes a debate with my wife”.

And since then, practically everyone on the internet has been trying to solve it.

People can’t agree on an answer.

Although we are sympathetic to this solution.

Have you solved it? If not, our former colleague Gavan Reilly at Today FM is here to help. 

All we can say is that Cheryl isn’t getting any cards for her birthday.
