What is it that after you take away the whole, some still remains?
Common Wrong Answers
“Nothing”
The answer implies that something is left after removing the whole, whereas 'nothing' suggests the absence of anything.
“Whole”
While 'whole' is related to the riddle, it doesn't fit the clue about what remains after the whole is taken away.
“Empty”
'Empty' suggests a lack of substance, which contradicts the idea that something still remains after the whole is removed.
