Ready for a brain teaser? Let’s dive into this riddle:
“I have 4 brothers, and each brother has 4 brothers. How many of us are there?”
It sounds tricky, but let’s break it down:
Step 1: Who’s Talking?
The person speaking is one of the brothers. So, don’t forget to count him!
Step 2: Counting the Brothers
The speaker has 4 brothers, and each of those brothers also has 4 brothers. Here’s the catch: Each brother (including the speaker) counts as one of the 4 others.
Final Answer:
There are 5 brothers in total: the speaker and his 4 siblings.
Why It Tricks People:
The wording makes it seem like there should be more brothers, but logically, the number stays the same. It’s all about perspective!
