Question

If a lion has four legs, a monkey has four legs and an elephant has four legs, then how many legs do we have?

• A. \(2\)
• B. \(4\)
• C. \(6\)
• D. \(8\)

Hint:

In reasoning questions, always read the final line carefully. Many questions include unnecessary information to distract the reader. Here, the animals are irrelevant because the question asks about “we” (humans).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Concept: This is a reasoning-based question designed to test attention rather than mathematical computation. Many candidates mistakenly add the legs of the animals mentioned in the statement. However, the question finally asks: \[ \text{``How many legs do we have?''} \] The word we refers to human beings.

Step 1: Analyze the given information.
The statement mentions:
• Lion \(\rightarrow 4\) legs
• Monkey \(\rightarrow 4\) legs
• Elephant \(\rightarrow 4\) legs These facts are distractions and are not required for the final answer.

Step 2: Focus on the actual question.
The question asks: \[ \text{How many legs do we have?} \] A normal human being has: \[ 2 \text{ legs} \]

Step 3: Determine the answer.
Therefore, \[ \boxed{2} \] Hence option (A) is correct.
