Seven people, A, B, C, D, E, F, G discuss which weekday is today:
[list][list][list][list][list]A: “The day after tomorrow is Wednesday.”
B: “No, today is Wednesday.”
C: “You both are wrong, Wednesday is tomorrow.”
D: “Today is not Monday, not Tuesday, and not Wednesday.”
E: “I am sure that yesterday was Thursday.”
F: “No, yesterday was Tuesday.”
G: “All I know is, that yesterday was not Saturday.”[/list:u][/list:u][/list:u][/list:u][/list:u]
If only one statement is true, on which weekday was that conversation?
While reading I was influenced by my wishful thinking size=200[/size], because I wished very much (too much!) that you solved the riddle. But, unfortunately, you did not solve the riddle, and I became sad.
Yeah once I stopped abd thought about it out loud for a second, i felt pretty dumb for not figuring out before hehe
[tab]first I thought, there are only two possibilities. a single sentence being correcy, or none, because they are all mutually exclusive.
but then, if none are correct, dude 100 would be correct. but if dude 100 is correct, then there would be 99 wrong sentences. so he can’t be correct.
if 1 sentence is correct and 99 are wrong, dude saying that there are exactly 99 wrong sentences is correct. durrrface [/tab]
You are still not exactly saying who is right and who is wrong and especially: why. So my questions again:
Do you mean that the sentence of the 99th person is correct? And if so: Why is the sentence of the 99th person correct? And what about the other persons? Please give a rationale why the sentence of the 99th person is correct and what about the other persons and why.[/tab]
