Room Riddle: How Many Legs are on the Ground?

Question:

You enter a room with 2 dogs, 4 horses, 1 giraffe, and a duck lying on the bed. 3 chickens are flying over a chair. How many legs are on the ground?

Answer:

8

Explanation:

All the things on the bed are not touching the floor, the chickens are not on the floor, but the chair and bed are on the floor, which both have 4 legs, adding up to 8 in total.

The total number of legs on the ground are 8 legs.

Please note that you mentioned that 3 chickens are flying over a chair, so their legs are not on the ground.

Also, the 2 dogs, 4 horses, 1 giraffe, and 1 duck are lying on the bed, so this means that none of their legs are on the ground.

With this in mind, we are sure that no leg of an animal is on the floor.

However, we should not forget that a bed has 4 legs in particular and the chair are also on the ground and they have 4 legs too.

With this in mind, we add 4 + 4 which gives us a total of 8 legs on the ground.
