How many hands???
 
Great attempts:lol You may give your reasons. (No more limiting us to just replying with figures or numbers).
 
I always like these puzzles. :)

I see one big hand (1) with a smaller hand on all four fingertips and thumb (5 more) and each smaller hand in turn has another hand on all of its fingertips and thumb (5X5=25 more hands). 1+5+25=31 total.

Now each of the smallest hands looks like they could also have more hands on their fingertips, but the resolution isn't good enough to know this, so I discounted that. If that is true, then I suppose the number is infinity, because each successively smaller hand could have more hands on it's fingertips too. And speaking of things on hands, clearly I have too much time on mine. :-D

LOL, me too!
 
The total number of hands as a sum function of the "layers" of hands stacked on each other would be:

where
n is the number of hand "layers" or tiers
i is a mere increment variable

Does anyone know a free downloadable formula editor software? :sad

:toofunny :toofunny Ask King David. There is a real David in Pitch now. Hahahha Nice attempt tho

Nice attept? Dude, that's the exactest answer you can possibly get for this kind of puzzle!!! :grumpy
It's true no matter the resolution and size of the picture. Don't you value the beauty of mathematics?

I do value also the imperfection with mathematical analysis:chin:toofunny
