Is 4 a possible answer? You have some really good brain teasers.

anonymous · Answer

I am certain the answer is 4 because if you spread out the rest of the babies, then every day when have a min of 2 with 25 of the days having 3

anonymous · Answer

yeah 4 is the right answer aha

anonymous · Answer

What i did for an approach to the question was find out how I could spread the babies out evenly.  89-60 = 29. This means every day has 2 babies with 29 left to spread out

anonymous · Answer

Since there are 29 left, then I can spread the rest with one day only have 2, and the rest 3, but since the 15 has more then it must be 4

anonymous · Answer

Does that make since? Because I do not know a mathematical equation to demonstrate the answer. That was mostly logic

anonymous · Answer

no yeah that makes sense! Thankyou!!!
