Which is the correct answer?

 

The answer is 4 eggs remain.

Here's why:

You start with 6 eggs.
The 2 eggs you broke are the same 2 eggs you cooked.
The 2 eggs you cooked are the same 2 eggs you consumed.

So only 2 eggs were actually used.

6 − 2 = 4 eggs left. ✅

This is a classic trick question because many people incorrectly subtract 2 + 2 + 2 and get 0. The cooking and eating were done with the same two broken eggs.
