On the mint last night, there was a game that said ''Add the numbers''

NINETEEN MINUS FIVE =
4 + 3 x 2 =
6 - 5 =

I fell asleep before I heard the correct answer. Does anyone know what the right answer was and how did they arrive at it?

The answer is...
I watched it too and no-one got the answer atleast by the time i fell asleep. It is an ambiguous question. There's a similar posting on the site and it couldn't shed any light on the subject. Best off not wasting your money ringing because you won't get through anyway.

I have one solution that could be correct:

19+5+4+3+2+6+5=44
then in the words 19 and 5 there are the roman numerals:
I I I M V = 1008
1008 + 44 = 1052

although you could just say there are 12,13,7,5 numbers depending on the way you count each individual number, word, numeral....
i doubt my answer is correct and i suspect the answer will have no logic behind it or explanation when it is revealed whenever that golden moment arrives.

The only people being minted is itv.

interestingly enough did some one win it or did u fall asleep and not find out if the game changed?

I don't know if anybody won it, I fell asleep. but I'm sure you're right that the answer will have have no real logic behind it.
the correct answer is whatever answer the producers claim to be the correct answer.

in their terms and conditions it explains they are under no obligation to explain how an answer is arrived at.
I know the answer. Im not 18 though so if anyone wants to know it email me at nitrousjunkie101. I want to split the money 50/50
I know what the answer is. I cant call because im only 15. I been writing down EVERY single answer now for days and im 100% sure im right. I want to make an aragement with someone to call in a split the money with me.
Hi, I watched this programme with this puzzle, was very sleepy and taped the end and watched it the following day just to settle my mind finding out the answer............They changed the puzzle because no one got the "correct" answer - does anyone know if this has been aired again and thus has any one actually rang in with the correct answer? It is driving me mad - still. I do hope someone did see it and can tell me what the answer is. Thanks in anticipation.
