The best trick to avoid making mistakes is to retell the story in your head, step by step, like a little theatrical production .
Imagine your eggs on stage:
All on the counter (6 eggs).
Two are set aside, broken, but they are still there, ready to cook.
We cook them.
Then we eat them.
Answer :
There are 4 left. In the end, only two eggs were used, the others are still in their carton .

In conclusion: take the time to play with your logic
The next time you’re asked a riddle, take a deep breath, put your brain into “director” mode , and have fun calmly visualizing the steps.
Because after all, these little challenges are also there to remind us that thinking differently is sometimes the best way to avoid being fooled by our own mental shortcuts!
