Ten fish i caught without an eye,
and nine without a tail,
six had no head,
and half of eight i weighed upon a scale.
Now who can tell me as i ask it how many fish are in my basket?

I think it might be 0, your basket is empty.[msnsmile]

My head is in bits anyway, so looking at this just makes it worse.

Tell us the answer Frosty

Ok the answer is zero, here goes: -

10 without an I = 0
9 without a tail = 0
6 with no head = 0
half of 8 = 0

Clear as mud, congrats to Ray & Sarah and also Benfilo.

I'm glad i posed the question because i couldn't figure it out either:D

This one is all about removing part of the number to make it into a "0". It does just about make sense I think.[msnwink][msnsmile2]
