How Many 9's?
 
Theres ONE HUNDRED houses on a street.

How many of them have a NINE on the door?


(Did this at work and a surprising amount had to write it all down to get the answer)

sStevenRitziI 12-14-2006 12:24 AM

Quick guess, 19 houses?

agrismhig 12-14-2006 12:25 AM

19? Not writing down, honest. Gave it 5 secs thought.

Also depends on how many Germans live there. Think Spike Milligan.

itititit 12-14-2006 12:26 AM

0, 10 or 1.. depending on the trickiness of the question.

Eleven

Eleven isn't it?

One for each tens place including 0 (ie. 09), and one for 99.

19? Am I dumb?

Ruzhyo - It's not a trick question http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...ies/smile1.gif

If you are counting the sixes as well it's a trick question...

That'd be 38.

WaydayTew 12-14-2006 12:39 AM

Well if you mean how many houses have a 9 on their house number it's 19.

If you mean how many 9's are on the street then it's 20.

cepAceryTem 12-14-2006 12:42 AM

4372

72 of them are split level apartments and one is a hotel.

Ahhhh an educated man [thumbup]

Well done.

I was looking for 20.

9, 19, 29, 39, 49, 59, 69, 79, 89, 99 (2), 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98

Answer = 20

sStevenRitziI 12-14-2006 12:48 AM

The way you worded it, I got it right.

fd8IIys2 12-14-2006 12:50 AM

you said how many houses have a 9 on the door not how many 9s there are in the street!

You didn't ask how many nine's there are. You said how many of them have a nine on their door. It's 19 not 20.


...or if you count 6's as being upside down 9's, then it's 36:

06, 09, 16, 19, 26, 29, 36, 39, 46, 49, 56, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 76, 79, 86, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99
