Question

1 rabbit Saw 6 elephants while going to the river every elephants of two monkey going to the river every monkey holds 1 parrot in their hands. How many animals are going towards the river​

Answer 1

Answer:

There are 5 animals going to the river.

Explanation:

• 1 rabbit saw 6 elephants while going to the river

It is not mentioned that the elephants are also headed towards the river, which means the only animal going to the river is rabbit.

$\rule{300}{1.5}$

• Every elephant saw 2 monkeys going towards the river.

This part of the question is the most complicated as it says each of the 6 elephants saw 2 monkeys going towards the river.

Normally and following the logic we'll multiple 6 and 2 which is 12. Hence, 12 monkeys are going towards the river.

But reading the statement twice will help you understand that it is not mentioned that every elephant saw 2 different monkeys. So, we'll consider the monkeys which the elephants saw are both same.

The correct answer is every elephant saw 2 monkeys, the 2 monkeys are the same, therefore there are only 2 monkeys which are going towards the river. 

$\rule{300}{1.5}$

• Each monkey holds 1 parrot in their hands

2 parrots are going towards the river as there are 2 monkeys.

$\rule{300}{1.5}$

Total animals -

• 1 Rabbit
• 2 Monkeys
• 2 Parrots

⇒ 1 + 2 + 2

⇒ 1 + 4

⇒ 5

Therefore, there are 5 animals going to the river.

Answer 2

$\tt{\huge{\green{Solution_{Sn} \::- }}}$

Question :

A rabbit saw 6 elephants while going to the river every elephants of two monkey going to the river every monkey holds 1 parrot in their hands. How many animals are going towards the river.

Solution :

The rabbit saw some elephants while it was going to the river..

The rabbit was going to the river.

Now 6 elephants each saw 2 monkeys going to the river.

Supposing that elephants are not too intelligent,( :) )we can assume that only 2 monkeys head to the river.

Now each monkey is carrying a parrot in it's hands

Therefore, 2 parrots are going to the river .

No of animals = 2Mk + 2Pr + 1 Rb = 5.
