Ms. Baker's garden is always full of bunny burglars. If it takes 5 rabbits to steal 5 carrots in 5 minutes, how many rabbits are needed to steal 100 carrots in 100 minutes?


The answer is 5.

5 rabbits to steal 5 carrots in 5 minutes, so 1 rabbits to steal 1 carrots in 5 minutes, 1 rabbits to steal 20 carrots in 100 minutes, so 5 rabbits to steal 100 carrots in 100 minutes. finish

This is a famous trick question in the world of puzzles. It would've been easy if you like these kind of questions. If it takes 5 rabbits to steal 5 carrots in 5 minutes, it is also 5 rabbits to steal 100 carrots in 100 minutes.
