The Twins Riddel!

in blog •  7 years ago 

Here is a riddle:

The twins Samuel and Ronan Peterson were born in 2016. Samuel was born first at 1:39 pm. His brother Ronan was born after 31 minutes, at 2:10 PM. However, Ronan is registered as a firstborn between the two. How can this be?

In a rare coincidence, the two twins were born precisely between moving the clock from summer to winter, so Ronan was not born at 2:10 PM but at 1:10. As a result, the birth certificate indicated that he was born in front of his brother even though he is younger than him.
