It’s a PEAR Tree, Not a Plum Tree!
Riddle:
A tree has 24 branches, 12 boughs per branch, 6 twigs per bough, 1 fruit per twig. How many plums?
Answer:
0 plums – All the math is irrelevant. The riddle says it’s a pear tree, not a plum tree, so it cannot bear plums. It’s a trap through excessive math meant to distract from the category error.
