Once upon a time, in a small village in India, there was a young boy named Klay. He was very clever and loved to solve riddles. One day, a wealthy merchant came to the village and heard about Klay\“s talents. He decided to test him with a riddle to win his trust and friendship.
The merchant said, \“Klay, I have a bag of coins. Half of them are 1 rupee coins and the other half are 2 rupee coins. If I give you half the coins, how much money will you have in total?\“
Klay thought for a moment and then said, \“Sir, if I take half of the coins, I will have the same amount of money as I had before because half of the 1 rupee coins will be 0.5 rupees and half of the 2 rupee coins will be 1 rupee. So in total, I will have 1.5 rupees.\“
The merchant was amazed by Klay\“s intelligence and gave him a gift of 50 rupees. From that day on, Klay became famous throughout the village for his cleverness. |
