<u>Following is the story that explains the saying: Two heads are better than one.</u>

I told you about number one last week. Today, I'll talk about phrases that use different numbers. Some issues are tough to resolve. However, several number expressions might be useful. For example, if we add two and two, we could receive the correct result. We all know that having two heads is preferable to having one. To solve an issue, it is always preferable to collaborate with another individual.
There are moments when there are no two ways about it. Some issues have a single remedy. You can't be in two minds about this. But, with hope, we'll be able to fix the problem with two shakes of a lamb's tail. We might be able to get our answers swiftly and simply.
We can sometimes kill two birds with one stone. That is, we can accomplish two objectives with a single effort or action. But keep in mind that two wrongs do not equal a right. If you do something horrible to someone, you should not do the same to them. You don't want another to accompany you on a date with your friend. You might just tell your friend that "two's a company, three's a crowd."

They were, nevertheless, overjoyed when they finished their studies and graduated from high school. They were on cloud nine. They were on a high.
Students who perform well in school are hired nine times out of ten. Some people work in an office, doing the same thing every day from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. For this type of business, you do not need to dress to the nines or wear your nicest attire.
One of my pals applied for a better position at her office last year. I didn't think she'd get it. I felt she had a one-hundred-to-one chance of getting the job. Others in her office felt her odds were one in a million. One of the reasons was that she had been spotted grabbing forty winks at work. During the day, she slept at her desk for small amounts of time. Her boss, on the other hand, assigned her to the new position at the eleventh hour – at the very last minute. I think her fortunate number was called.
