6 Eggs..............
The question askes -- "how many eggs are LEFT" -- giving the reader the belief that some are no longer in the present,, they are out of sight, or they "LEFT" meaning they are gone and therefore no longer accountable ,, that would conclude that because he ate 2 -- logically we have to be reduce 2 eggs from the physical
The answer could only be, there are 4 eggs left
2 fried
2 broken
If the question was worded -- how many eggs do I have ,, or even , how many eggs did I have
The answer to those questions would be 6
2 fried
2 broken
2 in his belly
.
.
On the other hand , I could be completely full of s**t

c/p Explanation: The answer is six because of the use of past and present tense in the riddle. The riddle states that you have 6 eggs, which is using a present claus
