Saber y ganar

Saber y ganar ("To Know And To Win"), is a Spanish cultural quiz show hosted by Jordi Hurtado, which has been broadcast on La 2 of Televisión Española since 1997. It is the longest running daily game show in the history of television in Spain.

Format
During the show's duration, three contestants compete in different tests where they have to answer trivia-like questions, putting their mental, reasoning and memory abilities to test. Most of the questions have a moderate level of difficulty and are spread over six different games: "Cada sabio con su tema" (literally Each wise man with his subject), where each contestant answers questions about a given topic of their choice; "La pregunta caliente" (The hot question), where contestants must answer random questions and choosing who, of the other two contestants, must answer them; "El duelo" (The Duel), where two contestants answer questions about a topic that changes daily; "La parte por el todo" (The fraction for the Whole), where the contestants must figure out what an image, piece of text or piece of music belongs to; "La calculadora humana" (The human calculator), where the contestant with the second highest score must answer seven basic arithmetic operations in 50 seconds in order to keep his/her earnings for the day; and finally "El reto" (The Challenge), where the contestant with the least score has to figure out seven words from their root and definition in order to remain in the game. If the contestant loses the "El Reto", a new individual will be chosen to replace him/her the next episode.

The contestant with the highest score has the chance to solve "La parte por el todo" ("The fraction for the whole"). The contestant with the second highest score must solve "La calculadora humana" in order to keep the points he earned that day. The contestant with the lowest score must solve "El reto" in order to participate the next day.

At the end of each program, the two contestant that have more points automatically qualify to play the next day. The third contestant only qualifies if he answers correctly all the questions in "El reto". The scores are cumulative but start from zero every day. The maximum number of programs a contestant can stay in a row is one hundred.
