Three elderly men visit the doctor for a memory test. The doctor starts with the first man and asks, “What’s three times three?”
“274,” the first man responds with confidence.
Perplexed, the doctor moves on to the second man. “Your turn. What’s three times three?”
“Tuesday,” the second man replies without hesitation.
Shaking his head, the doctor turns to the third man. “Alright, your turn. What’s three times three?”
The third man pauses, thinks for a moment, and finally says, “Nine!”
Relieved, the doctor exclaims, “That’s correct! How did you figure it out?”
Grinning proudly, the third man replies, “Simple! I just subtracted 274 from Tuesday!”
The doctor sighs, realizing that while one of them got the right answer, all three might still need further evaluation!
