How long take you to find the answer?
My American friend asked me and it took me 2 seconds to find the right answer as he stood next to me to make sure the time... He told me it took him half an hour to do it, while I told him, I could do it right even when I was eight.

It would be interesting to see how people from different cultural backgrounds answer these questions...
