The 6-egg riddle that stumps almost everyone!

The Real Lesson

This riddle is really about reading comprehension, not math. It reminds us to slow down, think logically, and avoid jumping to conclusions.

Think of it like this: if you say, “I bought a  steak, seasoned it, and ate it,” nobody assumes you had three  steaks. One steak went through three actions.

Tips for tricky questions:

• Read carefully, word by word.
• Ask whether actions apply to the same object or separate ones.
• Look for the simplest explanation before overcomplicating.

Final Answer: 4 eggs remain. Now you can share the riddle with friends and see if they fall for the trap!
