A viral math puzzle is confusing social media users:
You buy a cow for $800, sell it for $1,000 (+$200), buy it back for $1,100, then sell it again for $1,300 (+$200 again).
The trick is tracking each transaction correctly.
Final answer: $400 total profit.
Many people get confused because they mix up the buys and sells, but step-by-step it’s just two separate $200 gains.
The puzzle has gone viral alongside other brain teasers like spotting hidden animals and finding mistakes in pictures.
