It seems like you're referencing a classic riddle involving coconuts! Here's how it generally goes:
A group of sailors finds a pile of coconuts on a beach. They agree to divide the coconuts fairly among themselves, but one sailor, trying to sneak a few coconuts for himself, decides to take his share during the night. When he takes his share, he finds that the total number of coconuts is no longer divisible evenly among the remaining sailors. This scenario repeats for each sailor until all have taken their share, but when the last sailor takes his share, he finds a single coconut left over to be thrown away.
The riddle raises questions about the number of coconuts, the number of sailors, and how they were divided. If you want to discuss this riddle in more detail or if you have a specific question related to it, feel free to elaborate!
