Can you solve the Christmas candle riddle?
The Christmas candle riddle has the internet in a frenzy. But do you think you can solve this seven-candle brainteaser before the festive season is over?
The riddle, which was spotted on Instagram reads, “I have seven candles lit. Two blew out. How many candles do I have left?”
According to Story Pick, the overwhelming majority of people jump in quickly to say there will only be two candles left. But this answer is actually incorrect.
The correct answer is actually seven! You will have the same amount of Christmas candles in the cake, regardless of whether they’re lit or not.
