As I was going to the mall I met a man with seven wives. Each wive held two bags, each bag held a mother cat, each mother cat had six babies,
How many people were going to the mall?
A woman has been paralyzed from the waist down for a long time, her husband was murdered a long time ago so she lives with her nurse. The woman lives in a 2 story house and the only way up or down is a staircase, she has to be carried up and down by her nurse. One day the police are called by the frantic woman who tell them that her nurse has been murdered. The police arrive and find the nurse at the bottom of the stairs with a slit throat, the woman is at the top of the stairs. The police search the woman's room and find only a wardrobe, a bedside table, a bed and a lamp. They immediately arrest the woman, how did they know?
There was no phone upstairs so she must've been faking her paralysis and made the call downstairs after she murdered the nurse.
In the land of Brainopia, there are three races of people: Mikkos, who tell the truth all the time, Kikkos, who always tell lies, and Zikkos, who tell alternate false and true statements, in which the order is not known (i.e. true, false, true or false, true, false). When interviewing three Brainopians, a foreigner received the following statements:
Person 1:
I am a Mikko.
Person 2:
I am a Kikko.
Person 3:
a. They are both lying.
b. I am a Zikko.
Can you help the very confused foreigner determine who is who, assuming each person represents a different race?
Person 1 is a Miko.
Person 2 is a Ziko.
Person 3 is a Kikko.
