RAY: My neighbor Frank says to me one day, he says I have five children. I say I know that. He says half of them are boys. I said I'll get right back to you. Can you explain that?
Now if you think you know the answer...
Answer:
RAY: Now people immediately start thinking about dogs, cats, canaries, and the like. They figured somehow or other he's miscounting.
Five children. I mean how can you have -- how can half -- how can you have five and then half, right? Does he have half a boy?
Well, he does. And it would be correct to say that ten percent of them are boys. Sixty percent of them are boys, and a hundred percent of them are boys.
Therefore...
They're all boys. Half of them are boys. Are they not?
