You're right, Wade, that one is easy. Many kids could solve it at an age equal to an apple divided by a coconut, or maybe three coconuts.

It's not a Japanese puzzle, I see. In Japanese, there's a word kokonotsu that means nine. It's pronounced, almost exactly, "coconuts". Another word for nine is ku.
