So this weekend this picture of these watermelons was all over social media with the question “How many full watermelons are there?”


I say 5 watermelons and here’s why:


See the 2 ¾ watermelons on the right? 


If you cut the half between them in halves it makes quarters and you use those to fill the ¾ watermelons. We then do the same to the left, and we’re left with 2 halves which then make 5 watermelons.


But I’ve seen so many different answers to this question. I’ve seen 3, 8 and 2 as answers.


What do you say? How many watermelons are there?
