Do you think you're up for the challenge?

We all know how important it is to give our brains as much of a workout as we give the rest of our bodies, as keeping the organ healthy could be one of the keys to keeping degenerative conditions such as dementia at bay. Puzzle games and brain teasers are a fantastic way to do this, as they can boost cognitive function and help improve your focus, perception, and problem-solving skills.

So if you're looking for a way to give your mind some exercise this evening, why not give this puzzle a go? After all, it's said to be so difficult only 1% of people can solve it within the time limit.

Take a look at the picture above. You'll see rows and rows of the same letter printed in green lettering, and if you look at them for too long, you'll probably start to go cross-eyed. But staring at the rows of Ms is exactly what you need to do if you want to solve this puzzle - as somewhere among them is an odd letter.

You have just 11 seconds to find the letter that doesn't quite fit with all the Ms, and if you manage to find it within the time limit, Jagran Josh claims you must be part of the "1% with the sharpest IQ". So set yourself a timer on your phone and get hunting for that odd letter!

Have you found it yet? If you're struggling, keep going! Even if you don't manage to beat the time limit, you'll still be training your brain if you take the time to solve the puzzle.

We're going to give you the answer now, but before we do, we'll give you a little hint for those of you who can't find the odd letter - you're looking for an N. Got it now? Keep scrolling to see the answer.

Did you find the letter within the time limit? Let us know in the comments! And if you want to try your hand at other brain teasers, why not give some of these a go? This one asks you to find three cats lurking in the family garden scene, while this one claims only 2% of people can find the hidden turtle in the messy bedroom.

There are also different types of puzzles you can try, such as this fiendishly difficult quiz shared by the question editor for BBC Two's Only Connect, or this maths equation that is said to be so tricky that only those with the IQ of Albert Einstein can solve it, or even this Who Wants To Be A Millionaire jackpot question that saw one contestant miss out on £1 million.
