But you’ll succeed if you really put your puzzle-solving skills to the test.
Players are asked to calculate how much a man would earn after buying and selling his cow.
A quiz posted on X (formerly Twitter) by Quiz Riddles states that a man bought a cow for $800 and sold it for $1,000.
The man then bought the cow back for $1,100 before selling it again for $1,300.

Your job is to calculate how much the man earned.
Solving seasonal puzzles can be a walk in the park.
But for those who aren’t the best at using their cognitive skills to find answers, this could prove to be a much more difficult challenge.
Some described the problem as “too absurd”, while others said the challenge “seems simple”.
Those who tried to solve the puzzle gave many different answers in the comments section.
Many people assumed that the man had $100, $200, or $300 left.
Instead of trying to solve it themselves, some people joked about their answers.
One person said, “You’ve earned my respect bro, you’re a real dealer.”
Another added: “I don’t know, but you’re making questionable financial decisions.”
A third said, “I have to buy and sell cows, it seems like easy money.”
However, the answer came two days later.
The account (@quiz_riddles) revealed that the man would be left with $400.
One user helped explain the final answer.
They said, “If your only money is the initial spend ($800), your total earnings are $300 because you will have -$100 in your account.
“But in this scenario where only the response to both transactions is earned you will get $400.”
