A scared mouse.....

gocatgo Nov 05, 2005 09:40 AM

This poor mouse doesn't know which way to run because he's confused on how many cats are in the room. Can you help him figure it out?

If a room with eight corners,
has a cat in each corner,
seven cats before each cat,
and a cat on each cat's tail,
how many cats are in the room?

I feel like the mouse......

Is it 30? I know I only have one cat in the room with me right now, but I don't think that counts.

I change my answer to 128... You better have a lot of kibbles and a very big cat box.

Sorry, that's not the correct answer. This is a puzzle riddle, which is different from the true riddle because the puzzle is stated clearly. All the facts are given for you to figure it out. In puzzle riddles, sometimes the answer is even given in the question.

Try again!

Now you've got the right idea, Julie. Sorry, still not correct though.

Read it over very slowly and carefully, and I'm sure that you'll get it this time.

Right you are, MA! The answer is 8!

And to tell the truth, Julie, I didn't get it either. I had to read the answer.

Good job, ladies!
