I have a MENSA puzzle page-a-day calendar on my desk at work. The puzzle today seems to have a glaring problem. Let's see if any of you can figure out what the problem is. Here is the puzzle, copied exactly from the calendar.

"Kim has three vases in her living room, each containing the same number of flowers. Kim adds thress fresh flowers to one vase, which now has two more than the new average. How many flowers were in the vases originally?"

What is wrong with that puzzle?
