There are two ducks in front of a duck, two ducks behind a duck and a duck in the middle. How many ducks are there?

Choose an answer

A.Five
B.Four
C.Six
D.Three
Hint: It's a word with 5 letters, starting with "T".

Answer

Three

Why this is the answer

With three ducks in a row, the middle duck has one duck in front of it and one behind, while the whole line still satisfies "two ducks in front" and "two ducks behind" when counted from either end.
