both π (Pi approx 3.14159) & e (Euler’s number – approx 2.71828 ) are between 1 and 10, plus quite a few other named constants and an infinite number of values
He still got it which reflects Brutus’s persistence in getting the correct answer, a very admirable trait. I am not so sure about the truthfulness of Hattie however……
“OK Harriet, try this;” says Brutus “think of a card, – OK what is the card your thinking of Harriet?” She replies “Three of Clubs” and Brutus replies “Right!”…

I wouldn’t trust her, you probably got it on the first guess!

If only Hattie were a little shrewd Brutus would never have guessed.

There are only 8 whole numbers between 1 and 10. That said, people usually only get one guess.

Brutus has a good enough heart that he’s willing to play stupid games with the duplicitous little brat. No doubt she changed her number all 11 times.

I like Hattie. She may be annoying, but she seems to be a bright little girl.

Knowing Hattie, she probably used a decimal or a fraction.

Gotta give Brutus his due for hanging with it until he got it right. That speaks well of him.
