1. 11 (or 26)
2. 0 - they'd all fly away after the shot. Unless the dead bird gets caught in a branch, then it's 1.
4. At least 4 are boys. Then 3.5 (half of 7) are boys, as well as a bit more.
5. The farmer. The hired help carried empty sacks

1. 26 ( A To Z), 'the alphabet' = 11
2. None, the rest fly away
4. 3 are boys 3 are girls and one is an infant
5. The farmer was carrying the heavier load as he was carrying a sack full of grain whereas the hired help was carrying two sacks of husk or just two sacks.
Good questions!

There are 11 letters in 'the alphabet'
There would be no birds left in the tree, coz they'd all be so scared they'd fly away!
All the Children are boys.
The farmer carried a sack full of grain; the hired help carried two empty sacks. The farmer had the heavier load

1) excluding 'the' Six. including "the" seven.
2)0 hearing the noise of the bullet the remaining fly away.
You have made a mistake in numbering you forgot to put no. 3.
4)All of them r boys.
5)the farmer carried heavier load because the farmer carried one "sack of grains" and the hired helper only carried two "sacks" which had no grains.
