"No M&M's" True or False?
Here's the scenario:
We're sitting on the couch. There is a bowl in front of us on the coffee table. In the bowl are more than 40 green M&M's. Additionally, there are 2 red M&M's in the bowl. (There is nothing in the bowl except the 40+ green and 2 red M&M's.)
You ask me how many M&M's are in the bowl.
Here's my response: "No M&M's"
You say to me, "But, there are more than 40 M&M's in the bowl, and there are two red M&M's in the bowl."
Here's my response: "Yes, but I don't count the green ones."
Now, I'm curious to know your opinion: Is the statement "No M&M's" true or false in this situation?
This is not a trick question. I'm just looking for your instinctive, common-sense response to the question: Is the statement "No M&M's" true or false?
