This morning, Jim made coffee for himself and his wife, Candice. Jim put the same amount of black coffee and cream in both cups, but Candice decided to add some extra cream to hers. Which cup of coffee was darker after they finished adding cream? Jim's cup of coffee was darker. Candice's cup of coffee was darker. Neither. The cups of coffee were the same color. Submit

Jim's cup of coffee was darker! Since he only added the same amount of cream as his black coffee, the ratio remained consistent, keeping it darker. On the other hand, Candice added extra cream, which lightened her coffee, making Jim's the darker of the two. In a fun twist, coffee lovers often experiment with the perfect cream-to-coffee ratio to achieve their ideal beverage. Just remember: more cream makes it lighter, so if you're aiming for that rich, dark hue, stick to the balance that Jim found!
