Two fathers and two sons sat down to eat eggs for breakfast. They ate exactly 3 eggs, each person had an egg. How is that possible?
It is beacause they maded 12 egg and three egg for each person and so they haded to make 12 egg for each person
There is not two Fathers , because if there was 2 two Fathers there couldnt eat 3 eggs each .
Its Possible Because One Father Is A Grandpa And The Other Father Is The Son Of The Grandpa And Then Their Is The Son Of The Father And That Equals Exactly 3 people To Eat Exactly 3 Eggs.
( Father–Son)(Father–Son)
(Grandpa–(Father)–Son)
exactly. I agree.
thanks
you dont have enough because there are 4 people and 3 eggs wouldnt be enough,2i think that since theres one dad and son sat at a different spot then it would work because no one said that they were together so there wousl be enough for 2 people but not 4
there are two fathers, but one father is also a son to the other father.
So we have 3 eggs:

2 of these eggs give us 1 egg yolk ball

One father and son had two full eggs. Then the other father and son split an egg.
One of the fathers is a grandfather. The other father is a son to the grandfather, therefore making that son a father and a son. So there is grandpa, his son, and then thats sons son. Hard to explaine. In all, there are three peolpe.
one of the sons got the yolk
one of the sons was a father
There is a grandfather a father and a son.The first father is the grandfather.The second father is the son of the first father and the father to the last son.So there are actually three people so each of them had an egg.
its possiable because the fathers are so nice so they shared the eggs
each person ate 3 eggs?
the grandfather is the father of the father which had a son so the grandfather’s son had a son
Maybe each of them had 3 eggs.
it is possible because they each had 3 eggs…each so that means that they each had at least one egg. it never said that they ALL had three eggs
two could of shared a big one
Its is Possible that They get three eggs each because One of them is the Grampappa , the Grampappa had a son , the son had a other son . Three of them ate exactly eggs each .
Right ? ((;
the 2 sons both got a whole egg and the fathers got 1/2
Well one of the fathers a grandfather and one of the sons is a dad to the other child, so therefor they all get an egg.
Two fathers and two sons sat down to eat eggs for breakfast. they ate exactly 3 eggs, each person had an egg. How is that possible?
ANSWER: One is a GRANDFATHER, but techniacly he is a FATHER, the other is the SON of the grandfather, but he is also a FATHER to the young son, his son.
so there is two fathers and two son and they all ate exactly 3 eggs and that equels 12.
they split 1 egg in half
each person had 1 1/2
1 of the people will get 1 whole egg and the rest of the people at the breakfast table will cut the 2 eggs in half so everyone will get an egg. 🙂
the grown ups could have had their own and the kids could have shared an egg. and in all that would be 3 eggs.
Solution
The Two fathers Had each an egg
And The two sons split the on egg into half Total Of = 3 Eggs
one son and one father had one whole egg each. the other son and father had half of one egg.
It is possible because one of the eggs were split in half.
2 of them had half of one egg.
if you multiply 4 to 1 you get 4 so four egg for four peeps
one father had a son and he became a father and had a son so
so the first father has a son and then his son has another son so that makes the first fathers son a father and a son so… yeah
there was a grandpa a dad and a son
because they all get 1 egg each
Dear Mrs. Ellison;
Now I know why you love my comments to the blog assignments. The answer to this is: It is possible because there is a Grandfather, Father, and Son. It’s a shame though that the Mother and Grandmother didn’t get to join.
Thank you for the riddle. It was funny.
Sincerely,

one of the dads and sons is a grandfather.
eather one didnt eat one of them or had to share it with there son
one of the ‘fathers’ is also a grandfather. Therefore the other father is both a son and a father to the grandson.
In other words, the one father is both a son and a father.
One of the ‘fathers’ is also a grandfather. Therefore the other father is both a son and a father to the grandson.
i think they split one of the eggs in half. or one of them didnt get an egg
no they split one in ahlf i think
they made 3 small eggs.
wait take that first one back.
they could have distributed the eggs?
One of the father is also a grandfather
Each person gets a whole eggs and a hair egg
-Joslyn
I mean half * not hair
the grandpa had a son and the son had another son
I do not think it is possible at all.
One of the fathers is also a grandfather. Therefore the other father is both a son and a father to the grandson. In other words, the one father is both a son and a father.
One of the fathers is a grandfather and the other father is a son and a father and then there is just the other son.
one of the fathers is a grandfather so therefore one of the sons is a father and there is his son so there are only 3 people
one father is also a grandfather and then the other father is both a son and a father to his grand son. so this means that the one father is both a son and a father. that is how it is possible.
There was a father (who was a grandfather) who had a son, who had another son. So the grandfather’s son was a son and a father because he had a son. Thank you Ms. Ellison.
so the people that went are the son the father and the fathers father so its 2 fathers and 2 sons because to the grandpa he sees his son and his son so there are 2 sons and to the kid he has a father and to his father he has a father so there are 2 fathers and since there are only 3 of them they had 3 eggs so 1 each
Two fathers mean the father of the son’s father, therefor it’s a grandfather. So the only people that were there is a grandfather and two sons, giving a total of three eggs.
it is possible because all of them had 3 eggs
There is 3 people one dad is the grandfather and the other dad is a dad and a son so there is a grandfather who is one of the dads and a dad who is a dad and a son and a son who is a son.
There was a grandfather his son and grandson the grandfather and son are fathers so if the grandson are two sons
There would be a grandfather, a father and a son. That would be 2 sons, the father and son, and 2 fathers which are the grandfather and father.
They all had 1/2 and 1/4
When you said “THEY”, “THEY” could have been anybody, it could have been the 2 fathers, it could have been the 2 sons. So “THEY” as in the 2 fathers ate 3 eggs or the 2 sons ate the 3 eggs.
A dad has a son and the son is a dad and the dad has a son
that would mean that there was a son a father and a grandfather the father was the son of the grandfather so two sons and the grandfather is the father so two fathers
okay, its either they made scrambled eggs or its the kid, father and grand father. the father and grand father are fathers and the son and father are sons. I think its the second one though;)
they cut the eggs in fourths. each person gets three pieces of each egg
a father, a son, and a grandfather so that means that the father is the son of the grandfather and that would be two sons and two fathers
A grandfather a father and a son.
the 1 father & son each eat 1egg & the other fater & son split an egg.
r
one dad had a son and the son gerw up and he had a sonthen he became a dad then makes 2 dadsand 2 sons
one guy had a son and he grew up and then had a son so the their is two dads and two sons
i think if they all cut all of them in 1/3 or 1/2 of each egg and they all seperate them evenly
okay the answer is there was a grandfather dad and son so the total of people is 3 .because the grandfather is 1 of the fathers.the dad is the 2 father and the 1 son and the dads son is the 2 son.
It could go two ways, it could be saying that each individual person had three eggs or they bought three eggs and divided it evenly. If they had divided it evenly then each person got 3/4 of an egg because it couldn’t go evenly if you split each egg into 1/2 1/3 or a 1/6 ang going any farther wouldn’t be necesary so you would cut each egg into fourths and split it among thefour people leaving it to be that they each got 3/4 of an egg.
2 of them had full eggs and the other 2 a
had half eggs.
umm that’s not possible because there wouldn’t be enough eggs to go around for the 4 people if theres only 3 eggs
One father could also be the grandpa to a son
the fathers had full eggs and the sons had half eggs…other wise it would not be possible
It is a Grandpa, a Dad and a son.
one person had 1 half of a egg and the other person had the other half.

one father is a son
father 1/2 1/4 father1/2 1/4 son 1/2 1/4 son 1/2 1/4
I believe that 2 people split 1 egg, and the other 2 had 1 egg each.
Impossible because its dad with 2 sons ora grandpa with a son who had a son or a dad who had a son who also had a son either way its two sons and a dad

there was a grandpa dad and a son
one of the sons is actually a father. and one of the fathers is actually the grandpa.
grandpa – son
father – son
so theres really a grandpa, a father, and a son
one father and one son each had there own egg. the other son and father split an egg.
one father and son have one whole egg and the other father and son have a slip of a egg… 🙂
This is really gross but it works one could eat it then throw it up and the other eats it and everyone has an egg
One of the fathers is also a grandfather. Then the other father is both a son and a father to the grandson.
In other words, the one father is both a son and a father.
one of the fathers is a grandfather thus making the father a son as well
It’s possible because one of the Father’s is GRANDFATHER and he had his own son which would be the SECOND FATHER and he had his own son too so that would be the THIRD FATHER.
There is a grandfather,which is also a dad.There is a dad who is also a son.Then there is a son. (I know it sounds really confusing.)
1 father and 1 son shared a egg
I think one is for two grandfathers and is rr the grandson counts as three
they made two eggs for each and then they split the 3rd one to make it look like it as 1 full egg so it looked like 3 eggs on their plates.

0ne is a grandpa and on one is a father and just a son
a grandfather is a dad and the grahdfather has a son wich is adad and the dad has a son
Oh no! Who does this belong to?
they both had three eggs and that equils six so six eggs were used
one of them is a grandpa one is a dad and the other one is a son/gandson
