You are a soldier in the Winterfell Kingdom
In a recent war against the Lannisters you saved your King's life
He was very pleased with you and offered to marry one of his daughters
The king actually had triplets as there was only one minute difference between the births of his daughters
He called his daughters to step forward
After looking towards the trio he had a confusing look and he told you this
"Among these three" "The oldest one is Caitlyn and she always speaks the truth"
"Second one is Cersi and she is always a liar"
"The youngest is Danerys and nobody can tell when she speaks the truth or is lying"
Obviously you would like to marry Caitlyn as she is a truth teller and marrying her would automatically make you the air of Winterfell
As all three are identical nobody can tell who is who, not even their Father
They were standing side by side when you asked them "what is the name of the girl in green".
The girl in yellow said "She is Caitlyn"
The girl in green said "No, I am Danerys"
The girl in blue said "She is actually Cerci"
Telling you this girls were made to leave the scene.
The King then asked you "Whom would you like to marry
the one in the green-the one in the yellow or the one in the blue"
What would be your answer?
The girl in the yellow is obviously not Caitlyn coz Caitlyn is a truth teller and she would never point other as Caitlyn
The girl in green is not Caitlyn as well coz she said she is Danerys and Caitlyn being a truth teller would not have said so.
So the girl in the blue is actually Caitlyn.
This is the most common river crosing brain teaser
A farmer was returning from the city to his village
The farmer had bought a fox, a goat and a cabbage for his family
. There was a 50 m wide river in his path to his village
Fortunately a small boat was on the city side of the river
But here is the problem
The farmer calculated and found out that the boat could support only one more weight other than himself
Also, if he leaves the goat and the fox at any end alone, the cunning fox will kill the goat
On the other hand if he leaves the goat and the cabbage at any end, the hungry goat will eat the cabbage.
How will he cross the river with all his belongings?
The first step is obviously simple
As he cannot take anything with him other than the goat, the first trip will be with the goat
He leaves goat at the village end rows back to the city end
Here he carries the cabbage with himself and makes the second trip to the village end
At the village end he drops cabbage there and makes the goat to jump onto the boat and rows back to the fox
The fox is then made jump onto the boat and the goat is left there
the farmer then leaves the fox with the cabbage at the village end and makes his last trip back to the city end
He then takes the goat with himself and rows back to the village end
The problem is now solved
A pirate crew found a treasure chest and were about to enter their territory
Just then they came across a river
. None of the pirates know how to swim
There is a small boat which could take them to the other side
But here is the problem
The boat can support only 200 pounds. Any more than that and the boat will definitely sink
The leader Ace weighs 200 pounds exact, while the muscle man Bick weighs 160 pounds
Crew mechanic Claw weighs 120 pounds and lady Danerys is mere 80 pounds
. The treasure chest is 40 pounds heavy
Also, it takes 2 minutes to row from one end to another and an enemy pirate crew will arrive here within 18 minutes
. It gives you only 9 times to row boat from one end to another ignoring the time to leave or join the boat
So, Can you help the crew to cross the river?
They offer 20% of their loot to anyone who resolves their problem.
The main problem here is if the leader Ace is made to cross the river there should be at least one person there to take the boat back
So first we have to make one trip such that we can leave one person behind
. The only way to do that in the first trip is to carry the lightest two crew members Claw and Danerys
We leave Claw here and Danerys will take the boat back
Now the leader Ace will row the boat towards their hideout end
He steps off the boat and Claw steps in
Back at the starting end Claw takes Danerys with him
Claw himself leaves the boat at the hideout end
Now, Danerys takes the boat back to the starting end and step off
Bick now jumps in with the treasure chest
On the other end he leaves the boat and Claw steps in
He now takes the boat back to Danerys, where she joins him and the boat is taken back to the hideout end.
There was once a large kingdom
. You along with two other men worked as logical theorists at the King's court.
There was always an argument of being the wisest among you three.
Everybody claimed he was superior.
The king had enough and he devised a plan to put the argument once and for all.
He called you all and said "I am going to put you all to a test, whoever completes the test first will be the wisest".
"Agreed" said everybody
He ordered to put blindfolds on you all and if felt something was being painted on your forehead
After the process the blind folds were removed
Afterwards the king told you this
"Everyone among you has been painted either blue or red on your forehead"
"." Whoever can tell me what is the color of his forehead at present will be declared the wisest"
If you see at least one of the other contenders's forehead painted as red you will raise your hand"
The next word I want to hear from you is the color of your forehead
Saying this he smiled and stopped speaking leaving you puzzled
You saw the other two contenders have their forehead painted as red and all three of you have raised their hand
But nobody uttered a word even after five minutes passed
What color paint are you wearing on your forehead and why?
You have to reverse engineer this
Start by supposing you are wearing blue color
Also suppose the other two contenders are Arthur and Robin
Arthur raise his hand coz he sees Robin's forehead red and your's blue
On the other hand Robin raised his hand coz he sees Arthur's forehead red and your's blue
At this point Arthur knows Robin is seeing two men you and Arthur
You are painted blue then why is Robing raising his hand
It could be only because Robin is seeing Arthur red
If that was true Arthur would have already uttered "RED"
". But that's not happening
The only way it is not happening is coz you assumed wrong that you are wearing "BLUE"
It implies you are wearing "RED"
