[Brain Teaser Series] Huh? How many children are left in the game of hide-and-seek? [Brain Training Quiz]

For example, if you have 500 yen and buy an apple for 280 yen, a quick calculation tells you that the change is 220 yen.

However, sometimes even with a simple quiz, if there is a trick element mixed in, the answer you thought of easily is often actually wrong.

This time, we will introduce a trick quiz that also serves as brain training.

There is no time limit, so please take your time and think about it.

※Please note that there are no hints provided to help train your thinking skills.

Question

Answer and Explanation

I will now announce the correct answer.

The answer was "0 children".

First, you are probably thinking, "Wait, why?"

Actually, a game of hide-and-seek involves an "it" (the seeker).

Even if there are 5 children participating, if you exclude the seeker, there are 4.

In other words, it is in a "-1" state from the beginning, which is the trick element.

Since 4 children have already been found, there is actually no one left to find.

Expressed as a calculation, 4 - 4 = 0, so the child who is "it" has found everyone.

Actually, the illustration was a hint 😮

Summary

Did you enjoy solving it?

At first glance, it seems like the answer can be found with a simple calculation, but there is actually a "pitfall."

That is the essence of this quiz, and it is designed so that you reach the true answer by discovering the "trick" element.

The reason I didn't set a time limit is because I wanted you to take your time and find the "trick" element.

If you got it wrong, there is no need to worry, and if you enjoyed it, that is what matters most 😸
