Two father and two sons walk into a shop. They each buy something for $1 but they only spent $3. How is that possible?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

they both have $1.50 to spend

Explanation:

1.50+ 1.50= 3.00

Answer 2

The scenario you described is a classic riddle. In this case, there are two fathers and two sons who enter a shop and each of them buys something for $1, but they only spend a total of $3.



1. Two fathers and two sons enter the shop. This means there are a total of three people: two fathers and one son. It's important to note that one of the fathers is also a son.

2. They each buy something for $1. So, in total, they spend $3 (1 + 1 + 1 = 3).

Now, the trick to understanding this riddle lies in the relationship between the people involved.

In this scenario, there are two fathers (Father A and Father B) and one son (Son A). Father A is also a son because he has a father, which makes him both a father and a son.

So, the breakdown of the people and their purchases is as follows:

- Father A buys something for $1.
- Father B buys something for $1.
- Son A buys something for $1.

Now, if we think about the total amount spent, Father A spent $1, Father B spent $1, and Son A spent $1. This adds up to $3, which is the total amount spent.

So, in summary, the riddle is based on the fact that one of the fathers is also a son. This means that when we count the total number of people and their purchases, we count the father-son as two separate individuals, resulting in the perception that they only spent $3 when, in reality, they each spent $1.

F1GUR3



John stepped out of the darkness with blood on his hands and ash on his face. The blast nearly killed him, but he must try again. The Constuction company needed this Master Robot to help. John slowly worked out the kinks and tried to bring his masterpiece online. (mumbles) “A cut here, put a transformer here.” He got up and pulled the lever one more time. Bright flashes of electricity shined above the table; the robot lay there waiting. Suddenly a bolt of electricity shot into the robot's access port on its neck. John knew it wouldn’t work; the town had given him a scarce amount of money for this project so that meant bad resources. A spark from the lever made John jump in pain, but it was too late. His entire body was engulfed in flames within a fraction of a second. He slowly died and fell onto the floor. After that, the electricity stopped running and the robot sat up and its face had an angry look as it stared at its creator. “SFPD Open Up!” The load yell made the robot jolt off the table and it just stood there staring out the door. Then, the door broke down and in came 10-armed San Fransisco Police officers. Who fired MK53-Tazers at the robot which made it fall to its knees. The robot woke up in a padded room filled with absolutely nothing technological. It spoke “just a small figure in a big room, I guess.” “yeah, that’s what I’ll call myself, The F1GUR3!” F1GUR3 put its hand up against the wall and unleashed a spark of energy, blowing away all the soft padding and the wall with it. It walked out into a small Laboratory with Master robots hanging by their wrists. A guard popped out of nowhere and shot the F1GUR3 in the head, but the bullet bounced right off. F1GUR3’s hands clenched around the guard's neck and tightened till the guard stopped struggling. F1GUR3 put its hand up once more and blew away the entrance door. It walked out with moonlight shining brightly and the stars behind it.

Answer:

Explanation:

As the porcupine headed down the woods on a starry night, it heard a rustle in the bushes that made him squirm. He tried to ignore it but it still scared him, so gathering all his courage he ran to the bushes and pulled them open. Turns out, it was just a kid feeding lilacs some soda. At the sight of the porcupine, the kid ran off, wetting himself. Since nothing seemed to want to kill him, the porcupine continued down the trail. Through a large clearing stood a beautiful gazebo. The bad part, a river blocked the porcupine's way. It upset the porcupine knowing he can't get across, but what happened shocked him. The fallen stars, the greatest myth within the story, had risen from the river bank, still as bright as ever and formed a path for him. He was shocked, the stars only came for something important, something worth their time. The only question now was whether or not to pass.
