Can you find the answer to this riddle?

Here is today’s confusing riddle, check the picture below.

Riddle: I Have 6 Eggs, I Broke, cooked, And Ate 2. How many eggs do I have?

Answer

The correct answer to I have six eggs I broke 2 riddles is: 6 eggs

The answer is six because of the use of past and present tense in the riddle.

The riddle states that you have 6 eggs, which is using a present clause. It then goes on to state that you broke, cooked, and ate a number of eggs. This is using a past clause.

The words ‘broke’, ‘cooked’, and ‘ate’ are all past tense, therefore implying that these eggs are separate from the six that you have.

Basically, you have six eggs. You did something with some other eggs previously. So now you still have six eggs in hand.
