Question

For Genius only Question: 1 rabbit saw 6 elephants while going to the river . Every elephant saw 2 monkeys going towards the river. Every monkey holds 1 parrot in their hands .How many animals are going towards the river ?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Mathematically speaking, there will be 19 elephants but logically speaking in the first line itself it is said that a rabbit saw 6 elephants while going to the river. This can be interpreted as.. the rabbit alone is going to the river and in his way, he sees the elephants. thus the answer can be..1... the rabbit alone

How I got 21

Rabbit------1

Elephants-----6

Monkeys----12----(every elephant sees 2 monkeys)

Parrots---(not to be included in animals)

total 19

Another way speaking, all elephants can also see the same monkeys... in that case the total would be 9 animals

Answer 2

1 rabbit saw 6 elephants while going to the river. Every elephants saw 2 monkeys going towards the river. Every monkey hold 1 parrot in there hands.

How many animals are going towards the river?

=> 1 + 2 + 2

=> 5 animals...✍️
