Common Wrong Answers
“Nails”
Nails are typically sold by weight or quantity, and the pricing does not follow a pattern based on their numerical representation like house numbers do.
“Light bulbs”
Light bulbs usually have a fixed price per unit that does not correlate with the numerical representation of their quantity, unlike the riddle's pricing structure.
“Paint”
Paint is sold by volume or type, and its pricing does not relate to the numerical values that signify quantities like house numbers.
