Question

yeah i heard this over the radio the other day but then i was distracted from the answer...enough to make you go ooooufff. anyways here goes:

the grand father, the grandmother, the father, the mother, the son, the daughter, the nephew, the niece were all sitting at the table. but there were only 4 people. how?

Answer 1

oh god its a very big answer

Answer 2

I think the Grandfather and grandmother and niece and nephew are at the table.  

The father and mother and son and daughter are the same people and the children of the  grandparents.  

Answer 3

i dont know but what i think is there is only the adults count, lol IDK

Answer 4

Dey woz dis-functional family?

Answer 5

let&#039;s start with the son (let&#039;s call him John) and the daughter (Let&#039;s call her Julie).

they could be parents (ie mother and father) but their kids just might not be sitting at the table.

then comes in their father and mother, who are also the grandmother and grandfather of John&#039;s kids and Julie&#039;s kids (none of the kids are at the table).

suppose the grandmother (John and Julie&#039;s mother) had a sister (who was not at the table). Then John would be her nephew and Julie would be her niece.

So there you go. You have a father (John and Julie&#039;s Father), a mother (John and Julie&#039;s Mother), a son (John), a daughter (Julie), a niece (Julie), a nephew (John), a grandfather (Julie and John&#039;s father) and a grandmother (Julie and John&#039;s Mother). This only works if you assume that John and Julie each have kids of their own, who aren&#039;t at the table, and if you assume either Julie and John&#039;s mother or father has a sibling who is also not at the table.

Answer 6

I think it&#039;s a funny question but i think it&#039;s like this. The grandpa is sitting together with its grandma, and the father is sitting with the mother, the daughter is sitting with its son and niece is sitting with nephew

Answer 7

All I know is that the Grandparents are the parents.  

Answer 8

OMFG!!! eifjhekfndjkmd  - I DONT KNOW. aaaaaaaaah!!!

Answer 9

Grandfather- is also a father and a son

Grandmother- is also a mother and a daughter

nephew

niece

4 people

Answer 10

cuz the father is the son and newphew, the mother is the daughter so grandfather grandmother and father/son/nephew, mother/daughter

Answer 11

The Grandmother is a daughter as well as a mother, the same as the grandfather, except he is a father as well as a son, then you have the nephew and the niece left over in which this will be equivalent to 4 people?! This is a tricky one
