How many eggs are left? The riddle that confuses 99% of people

This “99% people get confused” egg riddle is usually the classic trick:

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

The key is: it never says those are different eggs.

So the same 2 eggs can be:

  • broken
  • then fried
  • then eaten

That means only 2 eggs are actually used.

So:

6 total − 2 used = 4 eggs left

Final answer: 4 eggs are left
