This riddle is driving me insane. Please help me solve it. Here it is.
A woman has five kids and half of them are girls. How can this be possible?
She's pregnant with the sixth which will be a boy??
As long as at least 3 of the children are girls, then half the children are girls. The riddle doesn't state that exactly and only half are girls.

Yup. I think you've got it. The "other half" are also girls. Good clear thinking, rmull.

One was a hermaphrodite. Thus 2 1/2 kids are boys and 2 1/2 were girls.
