Question 384742: Admission to a secret and exclusive club is through passwords. When you knock on the door, the doorman says something and you have to respond with a number.
The doorman tells the first member, 'New votes'. The member considers this for a moment and replies, '9' and the doorman lets him in.
Another member comes to the door and the doorman says, 'Teething'. The response is '18'. He is also let in.
A third member comes to the door and the doorman says, 'Teen hero'. The member replies, '4' upon which he is allowed in.
Now it is your turn. You knock on the door and the doorman says 'Even for us.' What should be your response?

Probably 13 but I'm pretty unsure. Keep in mind that 18 is the legal age to vote, hence the term "new votes." However I don't know what 4 has to do with teething, since people teeth much earlier than 4 years (maybe 4 months). I would answer depends on the previous phrase, so the answer would be 13 because a person becomes a teenager at age 13.
