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

Answer:

they both have $1.50 to spend

Explanation:

1.50+ 1.50= 3.00

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.

Colony Collapse Disorder


In 2006, beekeepers throughout the United States began to notice something new—and troubling. Adult honeybees, known as worker bees, were disappearing from their hives, seemingly abandoning them. Few or no dead bees were found in the hives. The queen and larvae were alive and well. However, the swarm of worker bees that usually attended them to keep them alive were gone. What had happened?


The event became so widespread that it soon received a name, Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD). There was no denying that CCD was a problem. After all, American farmers depend on the work of honeybees and other pollinators. At least three-quarters of the crops grown in the United States depend on honeybee pollination for their survival. These include such crops as strawberries, blueberries, apples, broccoli, asparagus, and almonds. Without them, both farmers and anyone who enjoys fresh fruits and vegetables will suffer.


But what is causing this problem? Scientists have thoroughly studied a variety of possible causes, ranging from genetically modified crops to climate change to cell phone towers. Sadly, nothing has shown to be the cause of the problem. The most likely culprits are disease-causing organisms. These have been found in larger numbers in colonies affected by CCD than in unaffected colonies. But these organisms have included various viruses and bacteria. Some were found in greater amounts in different parts of the country. If CCD is caused by a single disease, identifying that disease will be difficult.


The CCD outbreak is most likely the result of multiple causes—disease, poor diet, pesticides, lack of genetic diversity, and habitat loss. Efforts to prevent colony loss have been mildly successful. The number lost has declined each year since 2008. But until a solution to this problem is found, CCD will remain a concern that will threaten the future of bees. It will also affect the people who rely on the food that they help produce.



What are the central ideas in "Colony Collapse Disorder"?


Select the two correct answers.



American agriculture depends on the honeybee for survival.


Greater concentrations of viruses and bacteria are responsible for CCD .


The CCD epidemic is most likely caused by multiple factors.


Strawberries, blueberries, and apples are pollinated by bees.
