If Mrs. John's one-story house is all yellow — yellow walls, yellow doors, yellow furniture — what color are the stairs?
Common Wrong Answers
“Yellow”
People might guess yellow because everything else in the house is yellow, but since it's a one-story house, there are actually no stairs at all.
“White”
White might be assumed as a common color for stairs, but the riddle specifies it is a one-story house, meaning there are no stairs to have a color.
“Brown”
Some might think of a wooden staircase and guess brown, but in a one-story house, there are simply no stairs present to have any color.
