Question

A man is pouring tea for his daughter, and after filling the cup, he takes a teaspoon of cream (from an identical cup) and stirs it into her tea. She wails "no daddy! I didn't want cream," takes the spoon and puts a spoonful of tea back into the cream cup. Is there more tea in the cream, or more cream in the tea?

Answer 1

The cream was 100% cream when it was added to the tea cup. Once the tea cup was stirred (so the cream was mixed into the entire cup) a spoon of it was taken and added to the cream pitcher. What was added to the cream pitcher was not black tea, but rather tea with cream in it... so there is more cream in the tea : )
