Only For Genius!! by Mescopaul(m): 3:45pm On Mar 30, 2015 |
Alice came across a lion and a unicorn in a forest of forgetfulness. The lion lies every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and the other days he speaks the truth. The unicorn lies on Thurdays, Fridays and Saturdays, and the other days of the week he speaks the truth. Lion: Yesterday I was lying. Unicorn: So was I. Which day did they say that? |

qbd2:k The two animals agreed on the same thing and it was only on sunday they both told the truth. BUT they made reference to YESTERDAY. So, we are looking for a day wen one lies and d oda says d truth which wuld fit perfectly. That is thursday. Afta lying on monday, tuesday and wednesday, the lion said "Yesterday(wed), I was lying" this is true because on thursday he would say the truth Then the Unicorn said "So was I" this is a lie because on wednesday, the unicorn couldnt lie but bcoz d day the statement was made was thursday, he had to lie that he lied. How confusing is my explanation |

Thursday. The Lion tells the truth by saying he lied yesterday (wednesday), but the unicorn lied by saying he lied yesterday because he told the truth on wednesday. 1 Like 1 Share |

The answer is 'today' |

As there is no day when both of the beings would be lying, at least one of them must have spoken the truth. They both speak the truth only on Sunday. However, the Lion would then be lying in his statement, so it couldn't be said on Sunday. So exactly one of them lied. If the Unicorn was honest, then it would have to be Sunday - which from my first paragraph above we proved this wrong. Thus only the Lion spoke the truth when he met Alice on Thursday and spoke with the Unicorn about Wednesday. So the lion said the truth on thursday that he lied on wednesday, however, the Unicorn who normally says the truth on wedneday, has lied on thurs that he also lied on wednesday |

darksuit:it can it is said that those animals are in the forest of forgetfulness the Lion forgot that it was a Sunday and thought it was a Thursday so in the end neither of them lied but one forgot the actual day so the answer is Sunday |
