Netizens can't wrap their head around a confusing puzzle for several weeks now. It all started with a short video on TikTok, where users were asked to determine how many eggs are left.

At first, the question looks very simple, "I have six eggs. I break two. I fried two. I ate two. How many eggs are left?" However, the seemingly obvious answer sparked heated discussions, as even the experts could not come to a single solution.

The puzzle went viral on various social platforms, and its popularity grew rapidly. Thousands of people around the world tried to solve the riddle, which at first glance seems like a simple task. But the more people tried to solve it, the more controversy arose. Is the answer really so obvious, or are there other ways to interpret the situation?

Puzzles like this one are not only an interesting way to have fun, but also a great opportunity to train your mind. Solving such problems regularly can significantly improve concentration and attention, so it's no surprise that the egg puzzle has become a real brain exercise for thousands of smart people around the world.

The riddle, presented in the format of a short question, made many people think. Although the answer seems clear, not everyone agrees with it. Is it possible that there are either four eggs left or none at all?

And here is the answer: there are four eggs left. Why? Because two eggs that a person breaks, they fry and eat at the same time. Thus, only four eggs are left. However, despite this explanation, many people in the comments still disagree with this answer. They point out that the first sentence is written in the present tense, and therefore all six eggs, according to their logic, are left.
