There are 4 sticks, you pick up one stick. How many sticks are left

There are 3 sticks because:

4 sticks is the total and when you take away 1 stick, it is

4 - 1, which equals 3 sticks

So, the answer is 3 sticks are left.


Question: If u are in high school, why did you ask this question? You already know 4-1=3. Im guessing it was either a joke, or u were helping other people get points. If it is the second one, thx!!
