The answer is 1 pound

GIVEN

All the fish in this stream weigh exactly 1/2 of a pound plus 1/2 of a fish

TO FIND

Weight of odd little fish.

SOLUTION

The above riddle can be simply solved as follows;

According to the question,

Weight of fish = Half pound + half of a fish.

Now,

Half pound = 1/2

And,

A fish is a whole, can be taken as 1

Therefore,

1/2 of fish = 1/2 × 1 = 1/2

Therefore,

Weight of fish = 1/2 + 1/2

= 2/2

= 1 pound

Hence, The answer is 1 pound
