If this is a trick question, Then the answer is anything between TWO and NINE depending on how many are living now. The question says they HAD these children. That does not necessarily mean they have them anymore (some or all could have died at birth). If all the children are dead then there are only TWO members of the family left, just Mr and Mrs King.Otherwise, the answer could be any number between 9 and 14 (if none died) depending on how many children they had from previous marriages.Example 1:If neither were married before, they have six daughters and a son. Thats seven children. This makes NINE people in the family including themselves.Example 2:Mrs King could have had, from a previous marriage, four children; three daughters and one son. Each daughter has a brother. That makes five individuals including the mother.Similarly Mr King could also have had three daughters and one son from a previous marriage. This makes another five individuals.So, Mr and Mrs King has in total eight children; six daughters and two sonsAfter Mr and king got married all TEN decided to live togetherExample 3:Mrs King has two children, a boy and a girl, from EACH of her three previous marriages. Mrs King therefore has SIX children, three boys and three girls. Note: Each girl has a brotherSimilarly; Mr King also has one girl and one boy from each of his three previous marriages. Ie each of these girls has a brother too. So Mr King also has SIX children from previous marriages.Now, that Mr and Mrs are married, they all live together as members of one family. The six girls each has a brother. Thats twelve children, six children from each of their previous marriages. That makes FOURTEEN members of the family.

If you do not believe in God, does the fact that many great people have and do believe in God.........?
(6) The daughter of Ethan Allen, the noted infidel, said to him in her dying hour, “You will bury me, father, by the side of my mother, for that was her dying request. But, father, you and mother did not agree on religion. Mother often spoke to me of the blessed Savior who died for us all. She used to pray for both you and me, that the Savior might be our friend, and that we might all see Him as our Savior, when He sits enthroned in His glory. I don't feel that I can go alone through the dark valley of the shadow of death. Now, tell me, father, whom shall I follow, you or mother? Shall I reject Christ, as you have taught me, or shall I accept Him, as He was my mother's friend in the hour of her great sorrow?��� There was an honest heart beneath that rough exterior. Though tears nearly choked his utterance, the old soldier said: “My child, cling to your mother's Savior; she was right. I'll try to follow you to that blessed abode.”

What exactly was the watergate scandal with Nixon?
From Wikipedia: "The term "Watergate" refers to a series of events, spanning from 1972 to 1974, that got its name from burglaries of the headquarters of the Democratic National Committee in the Watergate Hotel complex in Washington, D.C.. Though then-President Nixon had endured two years of mounting political embarrassments, the court-ordered release of the "smoking gun tape" about the burglaries in August 1974 brought with it the prospect of certain impeachment for Nixon, and he resigned only four days later on August 9. He is the only U.S. president to have resigned from the office." The scandal began over who ordered and who knew about the break-in and the attempt to sabotage the Democratic campaign. It was discovered Nixon knew about it and covered it up. He kept tapes. You can read the rest of the info on the Wikipedia site. There is a movie - "All the President's Men" based on the book of the same name by the 2 most famous reporters on the case.
The section has already summed it up, the answer definitely is 11.To explain a little further,Mr. King and Mrs. King = 2Eight sons = 8The last step is the trickiest, but the way I think about it is to see myself as an interviewer. If I went to the first son and asked, “how many sisters do you have” he would say one. If I went to the second son and asked, the same question he would also say one, but my point is that each of them are talking about the same sister.So in this manner you can conclude that sister = 1This gives you 8+2+1 = 11 peopleTo add to this, if there were indeed eight sisters, each son would say 8 and if you add this up you get 64.If there were 64, each son would say 64 and by adding these up you get 512.Obviously by doing this you would never arrive at an answer.The key point is to break down the question and think about potential consequences of your response. By doing this you will be able to arrive at the right answer every time!!!
