    Incorrect. What you are missing is this line:
    "Can sometimes be bought under the original price"
    which is I can say is a more general term, and not speaking only about the object

    A jar has 4 amoebas in it to start. Amoebas split their cells in two ( therefore doubling in size) once every minute. The jar will be completely filled in 10 minutes. How long would it take to fill the same sized jar if had 8 amoebas in it to start?

    No, Mauro. Fel got it right, but he doesn't seem to have a riddle, so he's passing it to you. If you don't have one either, I've got one.
