How can you put 9 horses in 10 stalls?

Answer 1

You do this, hon. First, you think of any possible way and the most important thing is to know how to spell ''ten horses.'' You fit them each into a stall and there you have it![t] [e] [n] [h] [o] [r] [s] [e] [s] Ta-da! Great job sugarcube! Get it?! Since horses like sugarcubes??!! Well thanks darling.

Answer 2

Draw nine boxes on a piece of paper, now here comes the tricky part, you write in EACH BOX, "T E N H O R S E S", and that equals 9 letters in each box. So figuratively you have ten horses in 9 stables. :P

Answer 3

In a normal situation, placing 10 horses in only 9 stalls is not something you would want to do, though, under some occasions and with special consideration, is possible.

If one of the horses is a foal, it may be stalled with it's mother -- though it is then advisable to place the pair in a larger stall. If you have very small ponies that get along well, they can also be stalled together. Just make sure that you provide two hay piles and two water buckets in the stall to limit fighting.

Another way would be to place one or two horses on pasture together while the others are stalled and rotate those horses in when you put the stalled horses out. Because horses are herd animals, you should avoid pasturing them individually (unless it is a stallion), especially if the rest of the horses are in the stable.

Answer 4

draw 9 boxes and write in tenhorses.simple!

Answer 5

tenhorses - when you count the letters you have 9 of them so this is the answer - every letter in one stable - that's tricky one :)

Answer 6

Put two in one stall.

There are alternative methods involving the use of a wood chipper, but they're rather messy.

Answer 7

You cut one in half lol Let two of them mate and after a while you will get a tenth horse

Answer 8

you draw 10 stables, and in each stable, write 9 horses

Answer 9

NINE HORSES is ten letters. You put each letter in a 'stall'. Hence 'nine horses in ten stalls'. Of course it only works by tricking you into thinking it means real horses and not an allegory, so to my mind it's not a fair puzzle.
