Question

there are eight men sitting on a couch.three legs break and six men leave.how many legs are remaining?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:There are 8 men so number of legs are 8*2=16. Now couch also has 4 legs, so total number of legs are 16+4=20.

Case 1: Legs broken are of men.

If the legs broken are of men, they still have it attached I guess(meaning it’s not been amputated ;P) and 6 men leave then number of legs remaining is 20–6*2=8.

Case 2: Legs broken are of couch.

3 legs break and 6 men leave. So number of legs remaining are 20–6*2–3=5.
