If you count only the tears, you’ll say 2.
If you count only the standard garment openings (neck + 2 sleeves + bottom), you’ll say 4.
If you count both the tears and the garment openings, you get 6.
If you start counting imaginary internal holes, buttons, or other trickery, you might reach 8, but that’s less commonly argued.
The commonly accepted answer
Most puzzle-buffs and logic riddles opt for 6 holes: the two tears plus the four normal openings (neck, two sleeves, waist). That answer treats “hole” as any opening in the fabric that penetrates the shirt, visible or not.
So if you answered 6, congrats – you solved the riddle as many brain-teasers intend you to.
