Question

my english hw is getting difficult! A man wants to enter an exclusive club, but he doesn't know the password. Another man walks to the door and the doorman says 12, the man says 6, and is let in. Another man walks up and the doorman says 6, the man says 3, and is let in. Thinking he had heard enough, he walks up to the door and the doorman says 10, he says 5, and he isn't let in. What should he have said?

Answer 1

i think i know 3?

Step-by-step explanation:

well at first i thought that it was half because half of 12 is 6 and half of 6 is 3

and so half of 10 is five, but since it wasn't correct, i looked closely and look at this

TWELVE= 6 letters

SIX= 3 letters

and so they have the answer correct, and it want half, because it was the amount of letters the number had.

so....

TEN= 3 letters

so maybe that's the answer

Answer 2

3

Step-by-step explanation:

it's the amount of letters in each word number as the code. Ten has three letters.
