A first-grade teacher, Ms. Brooks, was having trouble with one of her students, Harry who thinks he's too smart for the 1st grade wants to be in the 3rd grade. She took Harry to the Principal's office. The Principal discusses with Ms.Brooks and decides to give Harry a test. If he failed the test, he should go back to the 1st grade.
Principal: "What is 3 x 3?"
Harry: "9."
Principal: "What is 6 x 6?"
Harry: "36."
The principal tells Ms. Brooks, "Harry is smart enough, he can go to the 3rd grade."
Ms.Brooks then asks the principal if she, herself, could ask Harry some questions. The Principal and Harry both agreed.
Ms.Brooks asks: "What does a cow have four of that I have only two of?"
Harry, after a moment: "Legs"
Ms.Brooks: "What is in your pants that you have but I do not have?"
The principal wondered why would she ask such a question!
Harry: "Pockets"
Ms.Brooks: "What does a dog do that a man steps into?"
Harry: "Pants"
