While the picture appeared to only show three birds, the question appears to rely on people thinking outside of the box and ignoring the cartoon, instead thinking of multiples of four.
And it was eventually a mum with a child in Year 2 that “dropped some knowledge”.
“We know Jared has to find worms in multiples of four so since 20 is the only answer in a multiple of four we can also deduce that Jared found five baby birds,” the user wrote. “My second grader is smart.”
Other users applauded each other for eventually figuring out the right answer but some were still left thinking it was a trick question.
“Am I the only one that thought it was a trick question since they don’t specify for how many days?” one user said.
