1. 366

3. 4
4. 11
To get 3777 you need to...
1. 366 + 30 = 3366
2. 3366 + 4 = 3766
3. 3766 + 11 = 3777
Now Im not sure exactly how it would be worded to make you add them up that way, but thats the only way to get 3777!
your more stoned than me!!

i think cosmo got it!
just all seems very silly to me!
the question was worded as:
'Add the following numbers'
would have got the camera out to take a pic but was in bed at the time..

Cosmo has got it, there was a programme on about this where some were worked out like Cosmo did but the questions were worded in such a way not to explain fully what to do, and others just could not be solved at all!

yeah, when they say add they sont say if your just to add them to the actual number or add them together, hence where the million and one different answers come from!
Contests will always use questions like this, as a good chance one of the possible answers isnt said so they then dont have to give out a prize!
