The answer is 6.

I agree. I got 7 the first time, but after re-working the problem, I must admit that NoHall is correct.

In case you doubt my problem-solving abilities, here's another I correctly solved:

The answer is always 6.

One of my favorite songs, by Trout Fishing in America:

What do you get when you add three plus three?
I believe the answer is six.
And how ?bout seven when take away one now?
I believe the answer is six.

Well, how do you do that in your head?
I would need a pencil all filled with lead,
A huge piece of paper ?bout the size of my bed.
Now?You must be a mathematician.

What?s 48 divided by twelve plus two?
I believe the answer is six.
How many strings are there on your guitar?
I believe the answer is six.
The square root of 36 is what?
I believe the answer is six.
Take three from the cube root of seven twenty nine now.
I believe the answer is six.

Well, how do you do that in your head?
I would need a pencil all filled with lead,
A huge piece of paper ?bout the size of my bed.
Now?You must be a mathematician.

Well, what?s 108 million, divided by
the square root of 324,
Times 10 to the minus 6 power?
What is the dimension of the field of complex numbers over
the real numbers, times the order of
the alternating group on
three elements divided by the
definite integral from zero to pi
over two of sine of X D X?
If you have a 20-inch wheel on a brand new bike
And you rode it thru the park from dawn till night,
And divided the times that the wheels go ?round
By 5 short ton to the nearest pound...

I believe the answer is 6

The answer is 6.

Winnie agrees....

The End

When I was One,
I had just begun.

When I was Two,
I was nearly new.

When I was Three,
I was hardly Me.

When I was Four,
I was not much more.

When I was Five,
I was just alive.

But now I am Six, I'm as clever as clever.
So I think I'll be six now for ever and ever.

-from Now We Are Six :love:
