hamlads1 Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 To celebrate my b-day i have quiz for you out there, just for fun!! :laughingsmiley: Two sons,two fathers, one grandfather, and one grandson went fishing. Everyone caught a fish, but only three fish were caught. How is this possible? :laughingsmiley: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superfly Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 They tossed the fish back in after they caught them. - There were only three fish in the "pond". - So therefore since they tossed them back in, they re-caught the same fish. Am I correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parshy Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 It was one grandfather , his son, and his grandson so it was 3 people Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superfly Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Well, both answers are possible. :P *feels stupid* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loc Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 When they got there 3 of the fish dragged 3 of the people into the water, and the reamining three caught a fish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOOM Bringer Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 I think Aangs answer is correct. There are two sons,two fathers, one grandfather, and one grandson The people are the son of the father (grandson) the son of the grandfather (father of grandson and son of grandfather) and the grandfather (grandfather of grandson and father of grandson's father) Grandson: Son and grandson Father: Son and father Grandfather: Father and Grandfather From this can you see two sons,two fathers, one grandfather, and one grandson? Therefore there is only 3 people there and only 3 fish caught! I hope you can all understand my crazy ramblings (by the way, I didn't look this up or copy it from a website, this is just my answer) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loc Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 Mine and T.J.'s answers are humorous so we should win. Not you Aang :axehead: :shiftyeyes_anim: You either Tom :axehead: :shiftyeyes_anim: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meeptroid Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 Loocem's answer seriously made me laugh for some reason. xD I might have to save that somewhere. :P But Aang's answer seems the most logical. :yes: And I thank DjTom for the clarification.
