It was the first day of school. The teacher had several children in her class. She asked all the new children to write down their names and their date of birth for her.
The first two names she looked at were those of girls. She saw that they both had the same last name. They also had the same birthday - June 9,1983.
"Will Jane and June campbell please stand?" asked the teacher.
Two girls stood up, and the teacher saw that they were just alike. "Oh, you're twins," she said.
One of the girls shook her head. "No," she said. "We're sisters, but we're not twins."
Q: How could they be sisters and be the same age, but not twins?
Jane and June Campbell were sisters, born on the same day the same year. But they weren't twins. They were two of a set of triplets. The other triplet, Jackie, was sick that day.
