Sixty... when u take 2 letters away you are left with 'six'
aitch
'five' since if you take 3 letters away (f, i and e) you are left with v which is 5 in Roman numerals. OR VIII Whichever answer seems like it would work in the situation
Sounds more like a riddle. I believe the original phrasing would be "six left' and not 'six letters left', making the answer something like "You could take the the 'e' and an 's' from 'sixes', and be left with 'six'."
Risk
The word "sixty."
