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
