There is a barrel with no lid and some wine
in it.

“This barrel of wine is more than half full”,
says Mark.

“No, it’s not”, says Steve. “It’s less than half
full.”

They do not have any measuring instruments
with them.

They cannot remove any wine from the
Barrel

How can they determine who is correct satisfying
the above conditions?

Four criminals are caught in a minor offence,
they pleaded judge to release them without
any punishment. As it was a minor offence,
judge told them that they will be freed
without punishment, but only if they can

solve a puzzle

All four of them are lined up on some steps.
A wall separates the 4th person from other three.

So to summarize:-

Criminal 1 can see 2 and 3
Criminal 2 can see 3
Criminal 3 and 4 can’t see any one else

Criminals are wearing hats, they are told that
there are two white hats and two black hats.
They can’t see their own hat color and are
told to shout their hat color as soon as they
get to know for certain what color it is.

They are not allowed to turn around or move.
They are not allowed to talk to each other.
They are not allowed to take their hat off.

Who will shout first ?

You have to fill the boxes with numbers from
1-8 by following below mentioned rules.

Rule 1: Predecessor and successor can’t be
besides. Example if we take number 3 in any
box, than neither side of 3 can have 2 or 4.

Rule 2: Predecessor and successor can’t be
upside or downside. Example: if we take 3 in
any box, then the box above can not have 2
or 4, similarly box below can not have 2 or 4.

Rule 3: Predecessor and successor can’t be
diagonally either.

Rule 4: c is smaller than f, else there can be 2
solutions.

And now there can be only 1 solution.

One murder happens in a village and police
inspector asked two constables to reach the
spot and take the FIR..
As it was night and too far from the station,
two constables didn’t go there and made a
fake FIR..after reading the report the
inspector said that you both are suspended
for making a fake report with out reaching
the spot.

Question is…How the inspector find that its fake
and they didn’t reach there?

One day a man woke up from sleep to find
that he was at an unknown place away from
his home.He walked certain distance to reach
a bifurcation.Two roads bifurcated at that
point one would lead him to his home and the
other would lead him to certain death…now
his dilemma was this…two man stood at each
road.one would always speak truth, the other
always lie.They informed him that he could
ask just one question to any of them but did
not tell him who was who.So, [/b]what question he
would had asked to reach home safe ?[b]

Man to first person: If i ask your partner , which way will he show as road to my home ?

Man to Second person : if i ask your partner, which way will he show as road to my home?

Both of them will point to the same direction and obviously the man goes the other way

I would slap myself and ask anyone of them if I just slapped myself or dranked water, if the person I asked said that I slapped myself, I will follow the road he stands on cos he said the truth, however, if he said that I drank water, I will turn and follow the road of his colleague cos he lied and that means his colleague is the one that tells the truth, I will follow the road of Mr truth based on the theory that truth leads to life lol.

Just ask any of the men "if I asked which road would lead me to home, which road would the other man point to"



If you asked the one telling the truth, he'd tell you that the one that lies would point you to your death.
If you asked the lying one, he'd lie that the one telling the truth would point you to your death.

One snowy night, Sherlock Holmes was in his
house sitting by the fire. All of a sudden a
snowball came crashing through his window,
breaking it. Holmes got up and looked out the
window just in time to see three
neighborhood kids who were brothers run
around a corner. Their names were John
Crimson, Mark Crimson and Paul Crimson.
The next day Holmes got a note on his door
that read “? Crimson. He broke your
window.”

Which of the three Crimson brothers should
Sherlock Holmes question?

There are 13 caves arranged in a circle. There
is a thief hiding in one of the caves. Each day
the the thief can move to any one of of the
caves that is adjacent to the cave in which he
was staying the previous day. And each day,
you are allowed to enter any two caves of
your choice.
What is the minimum number of days to
guarantee in which you can catch the thief?

Note:

1. Thief may or may not move to adjacent
cave.
2. You can check any two caves, not
necessarily be adjacent.
3. If thief and you exchange your caves,
you will surely cross at some point, and
you can catch the thief immediately.
