How Brilliant Are You? – Lets See If You Can Solve This Simple Maths by nickyj19(op): 7:22pm On Mar 08, 2022
This is a very simple maths question if you can
calm down and solve it
Even if you don’t like mathematics or logical questions like
this, you should be able to attempt and get this right
because it requires just common sense.



If you can’t solve this, kindly go back to your primary
school, enter your proprietor’s office, and collect all your
money back.


See the question below:-



7 MEN HAVE 7 WIFE'S.

EACH MAN & EACH WIFE

HAVE 7 CHILDREN.

(Question):- WHAT'S THE TOTAL NUMBER OF PEOPLE ??

It's riddle not mathematics with three different solutions


The first answer is 21,

It is mentioned that the 7 Men has 7 Wives, so each man has a wife. Thus 7 + 7 = 14

Then it is mentioned that each wife has seven children

Then each couple has a child, thus, 14+7 = 21

Thus there are a total of 21 people.

The second answer is 63,

It is mentioned that the 7 Men has 7 Wives, so each man has a wife. Thus 7 + 7 = 14

Then it is mentioned that each wife has seven children, thus we can interpret that seven children for seven wives, thus it will be 7 x 7 = 49

Then we can add the children to the men and wives, so 49 + 14 = 63

Thus, the total number of people is 63.

The third answer is 399

It is mentioned that the 7 Men has 7 Wives, thus we can interpret that seven men have seven wives

So it will be 7 x 7 = 49

Then it becomes 49 + 7 = 56 when we add up the men

Thus when we consider the children it will be 7 x 7 x 7 = 343

Then when we add 343 + 56 it becomes 399
