Let&#8217;s take a closer look:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the text of the question: If you look for digits, you won&#8217;t see any (all numbers are spelled out).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Logically speaking: We see two &#8220;numbers&#8221; (or words that indicate quantity): &#8220;How many?&#8221; (an interrogative word) and &#8220;one&#8221; (hidden in the root of the word &#8220;numbers&#8221; &#8211; plural). However, if you ask about specific, spelled out values, there is only one (or zero digits).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Visually speaking: If you read this text on a screen with a digital font, some people may see hidden shapes in the letters (e.g. the zero in the letter &#8220;O&#8221;), but that is already a high level of abstraction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So my answer is this: I don&#8217;t see any numbers (0, 1, 2\u2026) in the notation of your question, but I do see a word that asks about quantity (&#8220;how much&#8221;) and a word that describes the concept itself (&#8220;numbers&#8221;).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Did I understand you correctly, or was that some kind of visual joke?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This question is a classic trick that depends on how you interpret the text.
