A viral video featuring a peculiar motorcycle number plate has sparked curiosity across social media. The clip challenges viewers to decode the unusual markings and figure out what’s actually written.
Mathematical puzzles come in various forms and are often used to assess logical thinking, frequently appearing in competitive exams at the post-secondary level. The video creator, Aashish Kumar, challenged viewers with the question, “Brother, you have done Maths from Inter, right? Tell me what is written?” implying that mathematical knowledge might help.
Logical ability is often associated with mathematical skills, which is why such puzzles are typically expected to be solved by those with a background in mathematics. However, most people are aware that mathematical logic questions usually rely on high school-level concepts rather than advanced math. In this particular puzzle, though, the twist lies in the numbers—not written as digits, but presented in an unconventional format.

Such puzzles often lead people to overthink, assuming that complex mathematical formulas or lengthy calculations are involved. The mind immediately drifts toward difficult math, expecting a tough problem to solve. However, sometimes the solution is much simpler than it seems. That’s exactly the case with this puzzle—where instead of numbers, shapes are used. By simply identifying these shapes, the answer becomes surprisingly easy to find.
The key to solving the puzzle lies in correctly identifying the symbols. The task is to interpret the shapes and determine the vehicle number. What makes this puzzle intriguing is that it doesn’t require knowledge of advanced mathematics. A closer examination reveals that the shapes on the motorcycle’s number plate resemble clock hand positions. These shapes represent specific times, which, when decoded, reveal the actual number.
The photo was shared on Instagram by Ashish Kumar through his account @aashish_kumar_up31, with the caption: “Let’s see who is more intelligent.” Most viewers managed to crack the puzzle and correctly identified the number as 9335. However, some users gave incorrect responses, including one who wrote 9225.
The comments section also drew humorous reactions. One user remarked, “Those who issue challans will also need an hour to solve this,” while another quipped, “No matter how it’s written, a challan will still be issued.”
