Figure anything can come up (3)
I believe the answer is:
two
'figure' is the definition.
(I know that two is a type of figure)
I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for two that I've seen before include "limited company?" , "Company allegedly" , "eg Twins" , "Duo" , "A pair (3)" .)
