Let's analyze the situation carefully:

  • Initially, there are 10 people in the room.
  • You enter the room, so now there are 11 people physically present (the original 10 plus you).
  • You kill 8 of those 10 people.

How many people remain in the room?

  • The total number of people physically present in the room is still 11 (the 8 who were killed are still there, just no longer alive, plus the 2 survivors, plus you).
  • So, 11 people remain in the room regardless of their state (alive or deceased).

If the question is about how many living people remain:

  • 2 of the original 10 are still alive.
  • You are alive.
  • So, 3 living people remain in the room.

Summary:

Condition| Number of People Remaining in the Room
---|---
Total (alive + dead)| 11
Alive only| 3
