If you red the question carefully, you can see that it clearly says ALL BUT 7. So, 12 sheep died, leaving 7 left.

The answer is really 7 if u read it carefully, It asked how many are LEFT not how many died.
So you have to subtract 7 from 19.....

Definitely 4 options:

a) all are left ← this option is stupid, if some died, how are all of them left?

b) all die ← they clearly said that some die, but some are left, so all can't die this option is stupid too

c) 7 are left ← → this is your golden answer, if you can use your eyes and read properly, then well done. The question said 'ALL' die, and 7 are left. They literally answered their own question in the question. this isn't so stupid

d) 12 are left ← Just learn to read properly and don't get tricked some people may think this is stupid

SO YOU CLEARLY UNDERSTAND AND CANT DISAGREE THAT THERE ARE 7 STUPID SHEEP LEFT!

In this question there are 19 sheep and as he says all but 7 means 12 sheep dies but still now their bodies are there so the farmer have 19 sheep still now. in question it is also not asked how many are alive or how many are dead ?

re read the Fudging question, I don't want to take any chances they can't remove my account for the word Fudging , it SAYS THERE ARE 7 LEFT YOU , IF YOU THINK OTHERWISE THEN YOU HAVE 5 EXTRA CROMISONES , THERE ARE SEVEN LEFT, more importantly how did 12 die, GOTTA EAT 1 WAY OR ANOTHER

The answer is 7 since the question says all BUT 7 die. This means that all the sheeps except for 7 sheeps died. This is a trick that most people fall for and they tend to TAKE AWAY 7 from the sheep that used to be alive.

There are SO MANY stupid people out there that cant answer this question.. or they add inferences to the question. The question is the question. Very simple. There is nothing more you need to know. The answer is 0. That's right 0. Now the smart people are thinking I'm stupid too, but 0 is the answer to my question. 0 is how many brain cells they have functioning. One person actually said the farmer was dead! What the heck does that have to do with the number of sheep? What the heck kinda drugs is he on? Another person was smart enough to consider the "past tense" of "HAD" sheep, but then was too stupid to realize it doesn't matter either lol. It doesn't matter whether the farmer HAD the sheep or still HAS them! They're just asking you how many (sheep) are left!! This isn't a trick question so deep as past or present tense, its just a funny little question to make you think a little. NOT to make you infer that the farmer is dead for Godsakes or that the farmer once had sheep and sold them so he technically has no sheep but at one point he did have them, and the question was asked during when he already sold them! Like who on Gods green earth is answering these questions online? How much education or common sense do they have? I read the responses for about 2 minutes before shaking my head in disbelief and complete disgust at how stupid people are nowadays to think they needed to answer the question because they thought they new the answer. I felt compelled to write this because of my sheer disbelief in how stupid people really are. I'm a former teacher at neuroscience lab center for the academy of education for the scientists at NASA laboratories in Cape Canaveral FL. If you believe that, I'll tell you another one. I'm the farmer with the sheep.

Where did you get 0 from? The answer is clearly 7, unless of course it is a trick question.

Cause if u see the question "A farmer has 19 sheep *All* but 7 die How many are left?" So you see all the other sheep die other than the 7 sheep's . Can t believe people are so stupid -_-

Why does that make me stupid? I think the answer is 7 and not zero. I was asking how you have got to zero or I was asking the person who said the answer was zero. There's no need to be so rude just because I might not know the answer.

Ahem. "How many are LEFT", it's a subtraction question. Plus, the farmer probably already sold the cow bodies to the butcher. By the way, it's knew NOT new

It depends on what the question means.

a) If the question means 'all BUT 7 die' and the meaning of 'how many sheep are left' is 'how many sheep are alive', then the answer is 7.

b) But if the question means 'all BUT 7 die' and the meaning of 'how many sheep are left' is 'how many sheep does the farmer still have', then the answer is all of them are still there, it's just that some of them are dead.

ALL DIED but 7. So the farmer died too if 7 sheep are left. HOWEVER, if the farmer did not die, then only 6 sheep are left.

When did the farmer die? And where does the question say 7 sheep are left? It doesnt say 7 sheep are left. The question asks "how many are left". Read what is written. I question you as to how you would say the farmer died. I liked the farmer.

If a farmer has 13 cows and all but 9 die how many cows does he have left?

If a farmer starts with 13 cows and all but 9 die, he would have 9 cows left. The phrase "all but 9" means everything except 9. So, if all the cows except 9 die, those 9 remaining cows are what the farmer has left.

A farmer had 13 sheep all but 9 died how many did he have left?

9.If a farmer had 17 sheep in total, and all but nine died, then the answer to this riddle would be nine, since it states that all but nine have perished. It does not state that "nine died" because it has the key word "but" in it - that will often throw the riddled person off if he or she is not listening to the riddler, thinking that nine died, not eight, which is what occurred.


How many cows does the farmer have left if he starts with seventeen cows and all but eight die?

The farmer has eight cows, since all but that many died.


A farmer has 18 sheep all but 8 die how many are still standing?

The answer is provided within the riddle.The farmer has 18 sheep, all but 8 die. That means 10 sheep die, and 8 are left.This question is not about arithmetic, but reading comprehension. You don't want to calculate 18-8=10; that's what makes the riddle tricky. You need to know that "all but 8" means "all the sheep except 8."
