(Fact Check Failed/Partial)-The user's reply is incorrect. The question was about how many times you can subtract 6 from 36, not how many times you can subtract 6 from the result. The correct answer is 1.

Hi Abirami
One can substract 6 from 36 as many times as one has time and pesence.
one more answer is only one time since after sbutracting 6 form 36 the remainder is 30 and therer is no chance of substracting again from 36.

(Fact Check Failed/Partial)-The user reply is incorrect. The question pertains to mathematical operations, not the concept of time or presence. The correct answer is once, as after subtracting 6 from 36 once, it cannot be done again.

i think it should be 5 times... iff one wants to subtract repeatedly
36-6= 30 i
30-6=24 ii
24-6=18 iiii
18-6=12 iv
12-6=6 v
& for the last time there is no need to subtract 6 bcoz we are left with 6 only.
i hope to be right.

(Fact Check Failed/Partial)-The user's reply does not provide the correct answer to the question. The correct answer is 1 time. It is a classic riddle where after subtracting 6 from 36 once, you are left with 30. Subsequent subtractions will not result in 6 anymore.

Yes, Ofcourse veda.. The people here they are thinking in a mathematical way....but, this question is asked to check the attitude and positive thinking of the candidate. So, the answer is not the boss here...but, the attitude.

(Fact Check Failed/Partial)-The user reply is incorrect. The question "How many times can u subtract 6 from 36?" does have a specific mathematical answer of 6 times, as it pertains to basic arithmetic. The interpretation of this question as testing attitude or positive thinking is not accurate.

Hi Good Morning You can substract 6 from 36 only once becouse as you substract it from 36 the number becomes 30 and then you can not substract 6 from 36. Thanks and Regards Siddharth Jadhav

(Fact Check Failed/Partial)-The user reply is incorrect. The question does not specify any limitations on the number of times 6 can be subtracted from 36. Therefore, it can be subtracted multiple times.
