The maths is not mathing right now.

Yes, I’ve heard of that math puzzle featuring a cow that’s been circulating on Twitter! It’s been generating quite a bit of buzz with people debating the correct solution. Let’s take a look at it together.

The puzzle involves buying and selling a cow multiple times, with each transaction affecting the overall profit. After analyzing the steps, the correct answer to the puzzle is indeed $400.

Here’s the breakdown:
1. Purchase the cow for $800.
2. Sell the cow for $1000, making a profit of $200.
3. Re-purchase the cow for $1100, but since you’ve already made a profit of $200, your effective cost is reduced to $900.
4. Sell the cow again for $1300, making a profit of $400 ($1300 – $900).

So, the total profit from buying and selling the cow is $400.
