ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Complex question

A complex question is a question that has multiple parts and can be difficult to answer. Complex questions usually require more than one sentence to answer and can sometimes take longer to answer than simpler questions. For example, if somebody asked you, "Why do some people live longer than others?", it would be a complex question because it is not something that can be simply answered with a one-word answer. To answer this question, you would need to explain why some people have access to better health care, why some people have better diets, why some people have healthier lifestyles, etc.
