What’s Three Times Three? The Answer Isn’t What You Think

In this lighthearted and amusing short tale, three elderly gentlemen visit their doctor for a routine memory test. Wanting to check how well their minds are holding up, the doctor begins with a simple question meant to gauge basic recall and cognitive sharpness. He asks the first man, “What is three times three?” The gentleman thinks hard, squints his eyes, and finally blurts out, “274.”
