Pythagoras Groaned

There were three pregnant Indian squaws laying on animal hides about to give birth.

The first squaw, who was laying on a buffalo hide, gave birth to a 6 lb., 5 oz. baby boy.

The second, who was laying on a deer hide, gave birth to a 5 lb., 5 oz. baby boy.

The third, who was laying on a hippopotamus hide, gave birth to twin boys totalling 11 lb., 10 oz.

Therefore, we can conclude that the sons of the squaw on the hippopotamus hide equals the sons of the squaws on the other two hides.
