Question

Mr. and Mrs. Mustard have six daughters and each daughter has one brother. How many people are in the Mustard family? answer this riddle and remember no absurd answers and don't copy from google

Answer 1

Answer:

14 people are there

Explanation:

1- mr. mustard, 2- mrs.mustard, 3 - 6 daughters, 4 - 6 brothers as each daughter has one brother. So 1+1+6+6 =14

Answer 2

There are 9 people in the mustard family: 6 daughters, 1 son, and Mr. and Mrs. Mustard themselves.

• The given riddle states that Mr. and Mrs. Mustard have 6 daughters and each daughter has exactly one brother.
• Normally, people would mistake it for each daughter has one brother so 6 daughters hence 6 brothers. However, this is wrong. The correct solution is six daughters having one brother which is common to all.
• Hence, if one daughter has a brother then that brother is also the brother of another daughter as these are Mr. and Mrs. Mustard's daughters.

By this calculation, 6 daughters + 1 son + Mr. Mustard + Mrs. Mustard = 9 members.
