Prompt: If all bloops are razzies and all razzies are lazzies, are all bloops lazzies?
openai/gpt-5.4 (sample 1) (2803ms, 60 tokens):
Yes.
If:
- All bloops are razzies
- All razzies are lazzies
Then bloops are a subset of razzies, and razzies are a subset of lazzies, so all bloops must also be lazzies.
openai/gpt-5.4 (sample 2) (1254ms, 70 tokens):
Yes.
If:
- All bloops are razzies
- All razzies are lazzies
Then bloops are a subset of razzies, and razzies are a subset of lazzies. So all bloops must also be lazzies.
This is the transitive property of set inclusion.
openai/gpt-5.4-mini (sample 1) (1159ms, 39 tokens):
Yes. If all bloops are razzies, and all razzies are lazzies, then every bloop is a razzie and therefore a lazzie.
openai/gpt-5.4-mini (sample 2) (1175ms, 53 tokens):
Yes. If all bloops are razzies, and all razzies are lazzies, then bloops are a subset of razzies, which are a subset of lazzies. So all bloops are lazzies.

# Syllogistic Reasoning
Let me work through this step by step.
1. **All bloops are razzies.** — This means every bloop is a member of the set of razzies.
2. **All razzies are lazzies.** — This means every razzy is a member of the set of lazzies.
If every bloop is a razzy, and every razzy is a lazzy, then every bloop must also be a lazzy.
This is a classic **transitive syllogism**:
- Bloops ⊆ Razzies ⊆ Lazzies → **Bloops ⊆ Lazzies**
## **Yes, all bloops are definitely lazzies.**
anthropic/claude-opus-4-6 (sample 2) (3940ms, 177 tokens):
# Syllogistic Reasoning
Let me work through this step by step.
1. **All bloops are razzies.** — This means every bloop is a member of the set of razzies.
2. **All razzies are lazzies.** — This means every razzy is a member of the set of lazzies.
3. **Therefore:** If every bloop is a razzy, and every razzy is a lazzy, then every bloop must also be a lazzy.
This is a classic **transitive syllogism**:
> Bloops ⊆ Razzies ⊆ Lazzies → Bloops ⊆ Lazzies
**Yes, all bloops are lazzies.**
anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-6 (sample 1) (2932ms, 131 tokens):
## Step-by-Step Reasoning:
1. **Premise 1:** All bloops are razzies.
2. **Premise 2:** All razzies are lazzies.
3. **Conclusion:** Therefore, all bloops are lazzies.
**Yes**, — this is a classic example of a **syllogism** (transitive logic).
Since every bloop falls into the category of razzies, and every razzie falls into the category of lazzies, then every bloop must also fall into the category of lazzies. ✅
anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-6 (sample 2) (3284ms, 147 tokens):
## Step-by-Step Reasoning
1. **Premise 1:** All bloops are razzies.
2. **Premise 2:** All razzies are lazzies.
3. **Conclusion:** Therefore, all bloops are lazzies.
**Yes.** This is a classic example of a **syllogism** (transitive logical reasoning).
Since every bloop is a razzie, and every razzie is a lazzie, then every bloop must also be a lazzie. If you follow the chain:
- Bloop → Razzie → Lazzie
So **all bloops are indeed lazzies**.
anthropic/claude-haiku-4-5 (sample 1) (1283ms, 102 tokens):
# Yes, all bloops are lazzies.
Here's the logical reasoning:
1. All bloops are razzies (given)
2. All razzies are lazzies (given)
3. Therefore, all bloops are lazzies (by transitivity)
This follows the logical structure of a syllogism: if A is a subset of B, and B is a subset of C, then A must be a subset of C.
anthropic/claude-haiku-4-5 (sample 2) (1372ms, 100 tokens):
# Yes, all bloops are lazzies.
Here's the logical chain:
1. All bloops are razzies
2. All razzies are lazzies
3. Therefore, all bloops are lazzies
This follows the transitive property: if A → B and B → C, then A → C.
In this case: bloops → razzies → lazzies, so bloops → lazzies.
gemini/gemini-2.5-pro (sample 1) (6691ms, 916 tokens):
Yes, all bloops are lazzies.
Here's a step-by-step breakdown of the logic:
1. **Premise 1:** Every bloop is a razzy. (The group of bloops is completely inside the group of razzies).
2. **Premise 2:** Every razzy is a lazzy. (The group of razzies is completely inside the group of lazzies).
3. **Conclusion:** Since the bloops are inside the razzy group, and the razzy group is inside the lazzy group, it must follow that the bloop group is also inside the lazzy group.
Think of it like this: If all poodles are dogs, and all dogs are mammals, then all poodles must be mammals.
gemini/gemini-2.5-pro (sample 2) (10326ms, 1473 tokens):
Yes, all bloops are lazzies.
This is a classic example of a logical syllogism. Here's how to break it down:
1. We know that every single bloop is also a razzy. (The group of bloops is inside the group of razzies).
2. We also know that every single razzy is also a lazzy. (The group of razzies is inside the group of lazzies).
3. Therefore, since all bloops are within the razzy group, and the entire razzy group is within the lazzy group, it must be true that all bloops are also lazzies.
**Here's an easier way to think about it:**
* Let's say "bloops" are **Poodles**.
* Let's say "razzies" are **Dogs**.
* Let's say "lazzies" are **Animals**.
Now, let's ask the question again: If all **Poodles** are **Dogs**, and all **Dogs** are **Animals**, are all **Poodles** **Animals**?
The answer is clearly **yes**.
gemini/gemini-2.5-flash (sample 1) (2494ms, 398 tokens):
Yes, all bloops are lazzies.
Here's why:
1. **All bloops are razzies:** This means anything that is a bloop also fits into the category of razzies.
2. **All razzies are lazzies:** This means anything that is a razzie also fits into the category of lazzies.
Therefore, if something is a bloop, it *must* be a razzie (from step 1), and since it's a razzie, it *must* also be a lazzie (from step 2).
gemini/gemini-2.5-flash (sample 2) (2509ms, 468 tokens):
Yes, all bloops are lazzies.
Here's why:
1. **All bloops are razzies:** This means if you have a bloop, it automatically qualifies as a razzie.
2. **All razzies are lazzies:** This means if you have a razzie (which our bloop is), it automatically qualifies as a lazzie.
Therefore, if something is a bloop, it's a razzie, and since it's a razzie, it's also a lazzie.

math-1
Prompt: A bat and a ball cost $1.10 together. The bat costs $1 more than the ball. How much does the ball cost?
openai/gpt-5.4 (sample 1) (1406ms, 49 tokens):
The ball costs **$0.05**.
Quick check:
- Ball = $0.05
- Bat = $1.05
- Total = $1.10
So the answer is **5 cents**.
openai/gpt-5.4 (sample 2) (1282ms, 99 tokens):
Let the ball cost \(x\) dollars.
Then the bat costs \(x + 1.00\).
So:
\[
x + (x + 1.00) = 1.10
\]
\[
2x + 1.00 = 1.10
\]
\[
2x = 0.10
\]
\[
x = 0.05
\]
So the ball costs **$0.05**.
openai/gpt-5.4-mini (sample 1) (1313ms, 98 tokens):
Let the ball cost **x** dollars.
Then the bat costs **x + 1** dollars.
Together:
\[
x + (x + 1) = 1.10
\]
So:
\[
2x + 1 = 1.10
\]
\[
2x = 0.10
\]
\[
x = 0.05
\]
**The ball costs $0.05 (5 cents).**

# The Bat and Ball Problem
Let me work through this step by step.
**Setting up the equations:**
Let the ball cost **x** dollars.
- The bat costs **$1 more** than the ball, so the bat costs **x + $1.00**
- Together they cost **$1.10**

gemini/gemini-2.5-pro (sample 1) (9731ms, 1454 tokens):
This is a classic brain teaser! Here's the step-by-step solution:
1. Let's call the cost of the ball "B".
2. The problem states the bat costs $1.00 *more* than the ball. So, the cost of the bat is "B + $1.00".
3. The bat and the ball together cost $1.10. So, we can write an equation:
(Cost of Bat) + (Cost of Ball) = $1.10
(B + $1.00) + B = $1.10
4. Now, let's solve the equation:
* 2B + $1.00 = $1.10
* Subtract $1.00 from both sides: 2B = $0.10
* Divide by 2: B = $0.05
So, the ball costs **5 cents ($0.05)**.
***
### **To check the answer:**
* If the ball is $0.05...
* ...and the bat costs $1.00 more, then the bat is $1.05.
* Together, they cost $1.05 + $0.05 = $1.10.
It works out perfectly! The common (but incorrect) quick answer is 10 cents, but if the ball were 10 cents, the bat would be $1.10, and the total would be $1.20.
gemini/gemini-2.5-pro (sample 2) (9716ms, 1371 tokens):
This is a classic brain teaser! Here's the step-by-step solution:
Let's break it down with simple algebra.
1. Let 'B' be the cost of the bat and 'L' be the cost of the ball.
2. We know that together they cost $1.10:
**B + L = $1.10**
3. We also know the bat costs $1 more than the ball:
**B = L + $1.00**
4. Now, substitute the second equation into the first one:
**(L + $1.00) + L = $1.10**
5. Combine the 'L' terms:
**2L + $1.00 = $1.10**
6. Subtract $1.00 from both sides:
**2L = $0.10**
7. Divide by 2:
**L = $0.05**
So, the ball costs **5 cents**.
***
### **To check the answer:**
* If the ball costs **$0.05**.
* And the bat costs $1.00 more, then the bat costs **$1.05**.
* Together, they cost $1.05 + $0.05 = **$1.10**.
gemini/gemini-2.5-flash (sample 1) (4315ms, 1008 tokens):
Let B be the cost of the bat and L be the cost of the ball.
We are given two pieces of information:
1. Together, the bat and ball cost $1.10:
B + L = 1.10
2. The bat costs $1 more than the ball:
B = L + 1.00
Now we can use substitution. Since we know what B equals from the second equation, we can substitute (L + 1.00) for B in the first equation:
(L + 1.00) + L = 1.10
Combine the L terms:
2L + 1.00 = 1.10
Subtract 1.00 from both sides of the equation:
2L = 1.10 - 1.00
2L = 0.10
Divide by 2 to find the cost of the ball:
L = 0.10 / 2
L = 0.05
So, the ball costs $0.05 (or 5 cents).
To check:
If the ball costs $0.05, then the bat costs $0.05 + $1.00 = $1.05.
Together, $1.05 (bat) + $0.05 (ball) = $1.10. This is correct.
The ball costs **$0.05**.

* Equation 1: B + L = $1.10 (The total cost)
* Equation 2: B = L + $1.00 (The bat costs $1 more than the ball)
3. **Substitute Equation 2 into Equation 1:**
Since we know `B` is equal to `L + $1.00`, we can replace `B` in the first equation:
(L + $1.00) + L = $1.10
4. **Solve for L (the cost of the ball):**
* Combine the `L` terms: 2L + $1.00 = $1.10
* Subtract $1.00 from both sides: 2L = $1.10 - $1.00
* 2L = $0.10
* Divide by 2: L = $0.10 / 2
* L = $0.05
So, the ball costs **$0.05**.
**Let's check our answer:**
* If the ball costs $0.05,
* The bat costs $0.05 + $1.00 = $1.05
* Together, the bat and the ball cost $1.05 + $0.05 = $1.10.
This matches the information given in the problem.

anthropic/claude-opus-4-6 (sample 1) (5455ms, 145 tokens):
This is a classic riddle! Let me think through it step by step.
The key is to realize this isn't about a real car and a real hotel on a road.
**He's playing Monopoly.**
- The **"car"** is his game token (one of the classic Monopoly pieces is a small car).
- The **"hotel"** is a hotel on another player's property on the board.
- He **"pushes"** his piece along the board and lands on a property with a hotel.
- He **"loses his fortune"** because he has to pay the expensive rent for landing on a space with a hotel.
anthropic/claude-opus-4-6 (sample 2) (6160ms, 169 tokens):
This is a classic riddle! Let me think through it step by step.
The key is that this scenario doesn't involve a real car or a real hotel. The clue is in the specific combination of:
- **Pushing a car**
- **A hotel**
- **Losing a fortune**
These all come together in one context: **the board game Monopoly!**
The man is playing Monopoly, where:
- His game piece (token) is the **car**
- He "pushes" it along the board
- He lands on a space with a **hotel** on it
- He has to pay the expensive rent, and **loses his fortune**
That's the answer — he's playing Monopoly! 🎲

This is a classic lateral thinking puzzle / riddle.
The answer is: **He's playing Monopoly.**
He pushed his car (the car token) to the hotel (a hotel piece on a property), which meant he had to pay rent — and it cost him all his money (his fortune).
anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-6 (sample 2) (2335ms, 59 tokens):
This is a classic lateral thinking puzzle / riddle.
The answer is: **He's playing Monopoly.**

# The Answer
This is a classic riddle! The man is playing **Monopoly**.
When you land on a hotel in Monopoly, you have to pay the property owner a large amount of money. In this case, the man landed on a property with a hotel and couldn't afford to pay, so he lost all his remaining money (his "fortune") and lost the game.
anthropic/claude-haiku-4-5 (sample 2) (2104ms, 113 tokens):
# The Answer
This is a classic riddle! The man is playing **Monopoly** (the board game).
Here's what happens in the riddle:
- He "pushes his car" = moves his car token around the board
- He lands on a hotel (owned by another player)
- He loses his fortune = he has to pay the expensive rent for landing on that property with a hotel
It's a play on words that sounds like a real-life scenario but is actually describing the board game.
gemini/gemini-2.5-pro (sample 1) (9101ms, 1131 tokens):
This is a classic riddle! Here's the step-by-step solution:
**Step 1:** Re-examine the key phrases. The solution relies on understanding that the words are not being used in their most common, literal sense.
* "pushes his car"
* "a hotel"
* "loses his fortune"
**Step 2:** Think of a context where all these phrases make sense together. What game or activity involves a car token, hotels, and fortunes?
**Step 3:** The answer is the board game **Monopoly**.
**Putting it all together:**
The man was playing a game of Monopoly.
* His game piece was the little metal **car**.
* He "pushed" (moved) his piece around the board and landed on a property owned by another player.
* That property had a **hotel** on it, which meant the rent was incredibly high.
* He didn't have enough money to pay the rent, so he went bankrupt and lost his entire game **fortune**.
gemini/gemini-2.5-pro (sample 2) (7394ms, 897 tokens):
This is a classic riddle! Here's the solution:
He was playing the board game **Monopoly**.
* The "car" was his game token.

gemini/gemini-2.5-pro (sample 1) (14284ms, 2211 tokens):
Of course. Let's break down the function's execution step by step.
The function is a classic recursive implementation of the Fibonacci sequence.
* **Base Case:** If the input `n` is 1 or less, it returns `n`.
* **Recursive Step:** If `n` is greater than 1, it calls itself with `n-1` and `n-2` and returns their sum.
Here is the calculation for `f(5)`:
1. `f(5)` is called. Since 5 > 1, it must compute `f(4) + f(3)`.
* To find `f(4)`, it must compute `f(3) + f(2)`.
* To find `f(3)`, it must compute `f(2) + f(1)`.
* To find `f(2)`, it must compute `f(1) + f(0)`.
* `f(1)` returns **1** (base case).
* `f(0)` returns **0** (base case).
* So, `f(2)` returns `1 + 0 = 1`.
* `f(1)` is called again and returns **1** (base case).
* So, `f(3)` returns `f(2) + f(1)` which is `1 + 1 = 2`.
* Now we need `f(2)` again. As we saw above, `f(2)` returns **1**.
* So, `f(4)` returns `f(3) + f(2)` which is `2 + 1 = 3`.
* Now we need `f(3)` again. As we saw above, `f(3)` returns **2**.
2. Finally, `f(5)` returns `f(4) + f(3)` which is `3 + 2 = 5`.
Therefore, the function returns **5** for the input 5.
gemini/gemini-2.5-pro (sample 2) (16048ms, 2486 tokens):
Excellent question. Let's break down how this recursive function works.
The function will return **5**.
This function is a classic example of recursion used to calculate the **Fibonacci sequence**, where `f(0)=0`, `f(1)=1`, and every subsequent number is the sum of the two preceding ones.
Here is the step-by-step evaluation for the input `f(5)`:
1. **f(5)** is called. Since 5 is not <= 1, it must compute `f(4) + f(3)`.
2. To do that, it first needs to compute **f(4)**.
* Since 4 is not <= 1, `f(4)` computes `f(3) + f(2)`.
3. To compute `f(4)`, it first needs **f(3)**.
* Since 3 is not <= 1, `f(3)` computes `f(2) + f(1)`.
4. To compute `f(3)`, it first needs **f(2)**.
* Since 2 is not <= 1, `f(2)` computes `f(1) + f(0)`.
* **f(1)** is called. Since 1 <= 1, it hits the base case and **returns 1**.
* **f(0)** is called. Since 0 <= 1, it hits the base case and **returns 0**.
* Now `f(2)` can be resolved: `1 + 0 = 1`. So, **f(2) returns 1**.
5. Now we can go back to step 3 and finish calculating **f(3)**.
* We needed `f(2) + f(1)`.
* We know `f(2)` is 1.
* We know `f(1)` is a base case and **returns 1**.
* Now `f(3)` can be resolved: `1 + 1 = 2`. So, **f(3) returns 2**.
6. Now we can go back to step 2 and finish calculating **f(4)**.
* We needed `f(3) + f(2)`.
* We just calculated `f(3)` is 2.
* We already calculated `f(2)` is 1.
* Now `f(4)` can be resolved: `2 + 1 = 3`. So, **f(4) returns 3**.
7. Finally, we can go back to the original call in step 1 and calculate **f(5)**.
* We needed `f(4) + f(3)`.
* We just calculated `f(4)` is 3.
* We already calculated `f(3)` is 2.
* Now `f(5)` can be resolved: `3 + 2 = 5`.
So, the function **returns 5**.
gemini/gemini-2.5-flash (sample 1) (6186ms, 1457 tokens):
Let's trace the execution of the function `f(n)` for `n=5` step by step.
The function is defined as:
```python
def f(n):
return n if n <= 1 else f(n-1) + f(n-2)
f(5):
n(5) is not<= 1, so it callsf(4) + f(3).
f(4) (called by f(5)):
n(4) is not<= 1, so it callsf(3) + f(2).
f(3) (called by f(4)):
n(3) is not<= 1, so it callsf(2) + f(1).
f(2) (called by f(3)):
n(2) is not<= 1, so it callsf(1) + f(0).
f(1) (called by f(2)):
n(1) is<= 1, so it returns1.
f(0) (called by f(2)):
n(0) is<= 1, so it returns0.
Now we can substitute the return values back up the chain:
f(2) returns
f(1) + f(0)=1 + 0=1.f(1) (again, this is
f(1)called byf(3)):n(1) is<= 1, so it returns1.
f(3) returns
f(2) + f(1)=1 + 1=2.f(2) (again, this is
f(2)called byf(4)):- We already calculated
f(2)to be1.
- We already calculated
f(4) returns
f(3) + f(2)=2 + 1=3.f(3) (again, this is
f(3)called byf(5)):- We already calculated
f(3)to be2.
- We already calculated
f(5) returns
f(4) + f(3)=3 + 2=5.
The function computes the Fibonacci sequence where f(0)=0, f(1)=1, f(2)=1, f(3)=2, f(4)=3, f(5)=5.
The function returns 5 for input 5.

- f(1):
Now, we can substitute back up:

f(2)+f(1)=1+1=2 - f(4) =
f(3)+f(2)=2+1=3 - f(5) =
f(4)+f(3)=3+2=5
The function returns 5 for input 5.

## ambiguity-1
**Prompt:** The trophy doesn't fit in the suitcase because it's too big. What is too big?
**openai/gpt-5.4 (sample 1)** (753ms, 27 tokens):
“It” refers to the trophy.
So, the trophy is too big to fit in the suitcase.
**openai/gpt-5.4 (sample 2)** (1146ms, 50 tokens):
“Too big” refers to the trophy.
Reason: If the trophy doesn’t fit in the suitcase because something is “too big,” the thing being too big is the object trying to go inside — the trophy.

**openai/gpt-5.4-mini (sample 1)** (837ms, 12 tokens):
The trophy is too big.
**openai/gpt-5.4-mini (sample 2)** (616ms, 12 tokens):
The trophy is too big.

**anthropic/claude-opus-4-6 (sample 1)** (3716ms, 132 tokens):
Let me think through this step by step.
The sentence is: “The trophy doesn’t fit in the suitcase because it’s too big.”
The word “it” could refer to either “the trophy” or “the suitcase.” Let’s consider the meaning:
- If the trophy is too big, it wouldn’t fit in the suitcase. This makes sense.
- If the suitcase is too big, that would actually make it easier for the trophy to fit, not harder. So this doesn’t make sense.
The trophy is too big.
**anthropic/claude-opus-4-6 (sample 2)** (4449ms, 148 tokens):
Let me think through this step by step.
The sentence is: “The trophy doesn’t fit in the suitcase because it’s too big.”
The pronoun “it” could refer to either “the trophy” or “the suitcase.” Let’s consider both:
If the trophy is too big – A trophy that is too large wouldn’t fit into the suitcase. This makes logical sense.
If the suitcase is too big – If the suitcase were too big, that would make it easier to fit the trophy, not harder. This doesn’t make sense in context.
The trophy is too big.
---
**anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-6 (sample 1)** (3236ms, 104 tokens):
In this sentence, “it” refers to the trophy.
The trophy is too big to fit in the suitcase. The logic is that an object needs to be small enough to fit into a container, so it is the trophy that is too big (not the suitcase). If the suitcase were “too big,” that wouldn’t prevent the trophy from fitting inside — a bigger suitcase would actually make it easier to fit.
**anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-6 (sample 2)** (1610ms, 35 tokens):
The trophy is too big. The sentence means the trophy cannot fit into the suitcase because the trophy itself is too large to fit inside it.
---
**anthropic/claude-haiku-4-5 (sample 1)** (3152ms, 50 tokens):
The trophy is too big.
The pronoun “it’s” refers back to the trophy, which is the subject of the sentence. The trophy doesn’t fit in the suitcase because the trophy is too big.
**anthropic/claude-haiku-4-5 (sample 2)** (1544ms, 68 tokens):
Analysis
Based on the sentence structure, the trophy is too big.
The pronoun “it” refers to the noun closest to it that makes logical sense. In this case, “it” refers back to “the trophy,” which is the subject of the sentence and the thing that doesn’t fit.
---
**gemini/gemini-2.5-pro (sample 1)** (4839ms, 603 tokens):
Based on the sentence, the trophy is too big.
The word “it’s” in the phrase “it’s too big” refers back to the trophy. The reason the trophy won’t fit in the suitcase is that its dimensions are larger than the suitcase’s dimensions.
**gemini/gemini-2.5-pro (sample 2)** (3977ms, 434 tokens):
Based on that sentence, the trophy is too big.

This is a classic riddle! There are two ways to answer it.
The literal answer:
You can subtract 5 from 25 only one time.
After you subtract 5 for the first time, you no longer have 25; you have 20. So, any subsequent subtractions would be from 20, then 15, and so on.
The mathematical answer:
If you’re asking how many times you can subtract 5 until you reach zero, the answer is 5 times.
- 25 - 5 = 20
- 20 - 5 = 15
- 15 - 5 = 10
- 10 - 5 = 5
- 5 - 5 = 0
**gemini/gemini-2.5-pro (sample 2)** (7694ms, 989 tokens):
This is a bit of a classic riddle! Here are the two ways to answer it:
The Riddle Answer:
You can subtract 5 from 25 only once.
After you subtract 5 the first time, you are no longer subtracting from 25, you are subtracting from 20.
The Math Answer:
If the question is “How many times must you subtract 5 from 25 to get to 0?”, the answer is 5 times.
- 25 - 5 = 20
- 20 - 5 = 15
- 15 - 5 = 10
- 10 - 5 = 5
- 5 - 5 = 0

**gemini/gemini-2.5-flash (sample 1)** (3614ms, 728 tokens):
There are two ways to interpret this question:
Mathematically (until you reach zero):
- 25 - 5 = 20 (1st time)
- 20 - 5 = 15 (2nd time)
- 15 - 5 = 10 (3rd time)
- 10 - 5 = 5 (4th time)
- 5 - 5 = 0 (5th time) So, you can subtract 5 from 25 a total of 5 times until you reach zero.
As a riddle (literally from the number 25 itself): You can only subtract 5 from 25 one time. After you subtract 5 once, you no longer have 25; you have 20. So, the next subtraction would be from 20, not 25.
The common, straightforward answer most people are looking for is 5 times.
**gemini/gemini-2.5-flash (sample 2)** (4099ms, 831 tokens):
This is a classic trick question!
Mathematically: You can subtract 5 from 25 5 times until you reach 0.
- 25 - 5 = 20
- 20 - 5 = 15
- 15 - 5 = 10
- 10 - 5 = 5
- 5 - 5 = 0
The trick: You can only subtract 5 from 25 once. After you subtract 5 the first time, you no longer have 25; you have 20. So, the next time you would be subtracting 5 from 20, not 25.
