Is it not 40 cents? There’s definitely a logical reason for that answer.

When I heard it the didnt ask how much a pear cost and instead just asked, "How much is a pear?" The only thing I could think of was 2 as if it was a play on words. Then I find out fruit is sold by the vowel... stupid.
It is a fairly narrow form of intelligence assessment, but it does have a validity.

When problem-solving in an artificial setting, such as a hypothetical question, one needs to structurally recognize a couple of assumptions; that there is a right answer, and that you are provided enough information to find that right answer. With that basis, the task becomes finding the pattern where a pattern isn't apparent.

You are given the information that question wants you to know, and you are given the conclusion the question wants you to divine. Once you place yourself in that, admittedly artificial, cognitive space, the answer has a singular rationality.

At least with the bat and ball question that was posted earlier you had to think about it for even a split second before you realized its just a long winded way of asking whats 10 divided by 2.

With most of these types of riddles you have to get thinking on the right path, which is often predicated on quickly understanding what is actually being asked, like the ball question. If not you will get bogged down in a way that will never produce the answer and it’s hard to move off of what you think should produce the answer.

This .the math itself is easy
another example

In a lake, there is a patch of lily pads. Every day, the patch doubles in size. If it takes 48 days for the patch to cover the entire lake, how long would it take for the patch to cover half of the lake?
