Is it a trick question? It never said the giraffes were going anywhere...

Well, if they where going to the watering hole, than it is 210, I believe(just a quick guess added up in my head).
|
211.
ok here why. 10 giraffes 10 giraffes * 5 monkeys = 50 monkeys 50 monkeys * 3 birds = 150 birds ok. now there are 210 animals lets not forget the the zebra. so 211. Of cause this may be a trick question. and then the answer is one. |

I think its a trick question so my answer is one but heres something else you can say to confuse ppl (works most of the time for me) and its completely dumb in my opinion but ye here it is
If a chicken and a half laid an egg and a half in half a day how many days does it take a monkey to take the seeds out of a dill pickle... told ya =) oh ya the faster i say it the more confusing it is to ppl... |
Only one animal is going to the water hole. The zebra saw them on the way there but it was never stated if they were going to or from the water hole, if they were going anywhere at all.
DAMN YOUR TRICKERY! ~Ken~ |
