How many wives et al…

Posted in General, Life

Well someone sent me a riddle today and I thought I would share it because it was so easy (hindsight after pouring over something for about 20 mins and then realising the answer is …. before I give it away just take a look at the riddle).

It honestly is not something which is too difficult, people who know me, know my level of mathematical ability is outta this world (ie. ability is the wrong word, disability would be more appropriate)

Well without further ado, the riddle goes like this, once you have answered the riddle open this protected post and leave your details in the comments:
