So as not to litter the board too much, I'm only posting three logic riddles per day until I run out of riddles This is my last riddle post today: Exact same story as riddle #2. However, the wizard now has a collection of 3 black caps and 2 white caps (in the previous riddle, it was 2 black caps and 2 white caps). Since there are only three people, the possibility that the Wizard draws three coloured caps is 3 black caps, 2 black 1 white, or 2 white 1 black. After 4 seconds, the man at the base (C) is able to answer. How did he know the answer?
A must not see two white hats on B or C or he would know the hat on his head must be black. A's answer proves that at least one of the hats on B or C is black. If B saw that C was wearing a white hat, then B would know his hat was black. Since B could not say that his hat was black, the C knows that he must be wearing the black hat.
The Wizard puts a white hat on, the Three black hats see a Wizard with a white hat on and get the **** out of there. Two white caps left... the end.
codell got it again. Looks like you can not participate in my next riddles anymore since you have answered two. Tune in tomorrow for the next three logic riddles.
