Question

...Mr Smith has 4 daughters‍♀‍♀‍♀‍♀,each daughter had a brother, how many children does Mr Smith have?

Answer 1

Mr. Smith has five children.

As Mr. Smith has four daughters then each daughter is sister to other three daughters.

In same way it is said that each daughter has one brother, that means the four sisters have one brother not four brothers.

If it was said that each sister has four brother then the children count have been eight instead of five.

Answer 2

""Mr. Smith has 4 children" (daughter).

From the question, As Mr. Smith has four daughters then each daughter is sister to other three daughters and they had a brother which means the brother is no more.

If the question is in past tense then the answer is 5 children. The son is not included in the present situation.

Thus, Mr. Smith had 5 children but now he has only 4 children. "
