Oh! Are you talking about time?

Because if it's 11:00 PM and you add 2 hours then because it goes until 12, it's 1:00 AM.

So that would mean that if it's 9:00 PM and you add 5 hours, then it would be 2:00 AM!

So if 11+2=1, then 9+5=2

Did I get it right?

Ok, let me get this straight... you're talking about whole numbers, correct? If so, then 11+2=1 is mathematically impossible.

It maybe different if 11 or 2 is in a negative form

-11+2=

11-2=

But the first equals -9 and the other is 9. The only way for that to be possible is if you add a variable to it.

-11+2x w/ x = 6

so...

-11+2(6)=

-11+12=

1

So I presume that you want us to fill-in the gaps with variables in order to get the right answer?

The answer could be anything unless you're expecting us to see if we can have 9 + 5 = 1

It's not that hard. I'll give you a hint.

"You will get the answer from something you looked at during the day."

I'm guessing that the answer is 29, because it's the 29th of February. Any other means could be random number I see throughout the day.

I'm sorry, I'm horrible in math, riddles, and brain teasers.
