How did you do?
Answer for Riddle 1: A lot of people think that you count the furniture or yourself walking into the room but the riddle is only talking about the animals so the answer is “6”. This is because the riddle says that there are three chickens flying over a chair but that can’t be true because chicken’s can’t fly. Three Chickens with 2 legs a piece would make it 6 legs on the ground.
Answer for Riddle 2 – The boat is filled with people, but look again the boat hasn’t sunk and there is not a single person on the boat. Well, let’s look at this. The boat hasn’t sunk. This is where you really need look at the choice of words. You don’t see a “single” person because all of the people on the boat are “married”.
