Oooh, that's technically correct (or could be), but is not the answer I'm looking for. There's another, less intuitive answer available.

Edit: Substitute 'in' for 'on' the boat, and try to answer it!

6 ten dollar bills and 12 quarters, you need to include "ONLY" bills some where in there.

A family has 8 kids and were giving apples to each kid.
Jennifer got three, Peter got two, Jeff got one, Emma got two, Theodore got three, Veronica got four and George got one.

How many did Kelly get?

 

[seasong]

Kelly got two. The apples match the number of syllables in the name.

At the laundry.

There are 3 pair of red socks, 2 pairs of blue socks, and a pair green socks in the dryer.

What is the least amount of socks you would have to pull out of the dryer to get a matching pair, if you could not look ?

Is there only one syllabel in George ?

 

[seasong]

Technically 2, as that is the least you could pull and possibly get a matched set. However, to guarantee it, you would have to pull 4 socks.

Curses! I'm not a fast enough typist, I guess.

2 is technically correct because I phrased it badly however 4 is the correct answer.

Is there only one syllabel in George ?

Well, that gets into details of how to count syllables, of course . But by most methods, yes.

Edit: Phonetically and in IPA, George is actually 3 syllables, for example (jo ur juh), but in accepted English, it is the same syllables as Slick or Strength, which is 1.
