Viral test for missing eggs and few solve

The “6 Eggs” Riddle That Tricks Almost Everyone

Some riddles seem easy—but they hide clever logic that trips up even sharp minds. One viral example is the classic “6 eggs” riddle:

“I have 6 eggs. I broke 2, I fried 2, and I ate 2. How many eggs are left?”

Most people quickly subtract each action from the total:
6 – 2 – 2 – 2 = 0 eggs left.

But that’s a trap.

The trick is realizing the same 2 eggs could be involved in all three actions: broken, fried, and eaten. So, only 2 eggs were used. The remaining 4 eggs are untouched.

✅ Correct answer: 4 eggs remain.
