Ok, if you're bored at work or school or whatever, I've decided to post a little bonus puzzle for today....
Anita, Brunhilde, Claudia, Daniela, Ella, and Frida are good friends who love to argue over the time of day!
Here they are again arguing mischieviously over what day of the week it is:
Anita: The day before yesterday was friday or Saturday
Brunhilde: No, you are wrong, today is Saturday
Claudia: No today is not Saturday, Nor is it Sunday or Monday
Daniela: The day after tomorrow is Tuesday
Ella: Tomorrow cannot be Friday or Saturday
Frida: Tomorrow is Friday
Only one of their statements is true. Can you determine which day of the week it is?
If nobody posts the answers in the comments section, I'll post it within 48 hours.
Its Friday
ReplyDeleteOk, Cousin Eric did a terrific job explaining how he came to his answer. But in case his explanation wasn't enough, here's another stab at it...
ReplyDeleteTHE ANSWER IS e
SOLUTION EXPLANATION
Say it all positively,
Anita - today can be Sunday or Monday
Brunhilde - today is Saturday
Claudia - today can be Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
Daniela: today is Sunday
Ella : today can be Saturday,Sunday, Monday,Tuesday,Wednesday
Frida: Today is Thursday.
ONLY one person has given FRIDAY as a possible today. She must therefore be saying right, for all others to have been lying.
