The car is in box 2.
If the car is in box 1, statement 1 and 2 are true.
If the car is in box 2, only statement 3 is true.
If the car is in box 3, statement 2 and 3 are true.
Only 1 statement is true.


I'm far more confused by your explanation

The car is in box 1 from the left..The box saying the car is not in the first one could easily pass for the box 1 depending on the direction you choose to count from...It is not in box two which that states pretty clearly too wink

Re: Puzzle.. Try This, You'll Never Know Who Is Watching by Gemc3(f): 3:00pm On Apr 20, 2017
Which box is in the car? Loool
Re: Puzzle.. Try This, You'll Never Know Who Is Watching by Pluskid(m): 3:14pm On Apr 20, 2017
Okay first of all the there is no car *IN* any of the boxes....the car is *ON* the boxes....Now...The correct statement is ```The car is not in box 1```

My reason....Only the statement under the third box gives full information indicating the box that the car is not in ....

The other statements just says *this* box
And we should assume that the statement under each box doesn't belong to it...

Actually if does belongs to it...No problem...the answer still remains the same.

But imagine if the images are there and the statement comes in this form

Statement 1
The car is in this box
Statement 2
The car is not in this box
Statement 3
The car is not in box 1

NB: Only one statement is correct

See from this we all know that only statement three makes sense...and of course makes the whole thing easy...but...that's me thinking...I might be wrong smiley

K so I will try my best to explain d way I understand it.

if d car is in box 1 den it means statements 1 & 2 r right n just 3 is wrong and since we need just a true statement den box 1 is not d answer cuz it has 2 correct statements.


if d car is in box 3 den it means statements 2 & 3 r right n just 1 is wrong and since we need just a true statement den box 3 is not d answer cuz it has 2 correct statements.


If d car is in box 2 den it means jst statement 3 is right while statements 1 & 2 r wrong and since we need just a true statement den box 2 is d answer cuz it has 1 correct/right/true statement.


THE ANSWER is BOX 2

I hope u will understand.

1 is correct because it's written in bold letter.only ONE statement is true.
Re: Puzzle.. Try This, You'll Never Know Who Is Watching by Yusluv13(m): 4:22pm On Apr 20, 2017
the correct statement is (1) car is in the box. bcs I see car in the box. while 2 and 3 statement is wrong bcs 2 said there is no car in the box which make the statement lie. and 3) said there is no car in box1. I checked other again and I found car inside, mean that statement 3 is not true but lie as statement 2.so the answer now is 1).

namuguibe:
if you say the car is in box 1 then it means that's statements 1 and 2 are true because we can have only one true statement.
I think the car is in box 2 and only statement 3 is true.
What i said was that the clause is that only one statement is true, this also implies that only statement one (first statement) which says "the car is in this box" is true.

Ifeshyne:

What i said was that the clause is that only one statement is true, this also implies that only statement one (first statement) which says "the car is in this box" is true.
Nope, the clause is very clearly stated.:
"Only one statement is true" meaning that:-
Only one of the three statements is correct.
You may be misinterpreting it to mean that "statement one is correct".

emror4u:
who can solve this...
The answer is that the car is in Box 2. How?
Scenario one:
Since only one statement is true, then let's assume statement one is true and the other two statements false.
Statement one says the car is in this box. Assuming dat is true, den statement two dat says d car is not in dis box is false (dat means d opposite of statement two is "d car is in this box ) and statement three that says d car is not in box one too is false (dat means d opposite of statement three is " d car is in box1" ) in dis case d opposite of statement two contradicts the opposite of statement three and d actually statement one which we have taken as d control to be true. So there fore d three do not tally, so it can not give us d right answer.

Scenario two:
Assuming statement two is true and statement one and three are false, what do we have?
Statement two states d car is not in this box, assuming dat is true. Den statement one which says d car is in dis box is false ( opposite will "d car is not in dis box" ) and statement three which says d car is not in box one is also false ( opposite will be " d car is in box one" ) so in did case opposite of statement one and statement three contradicts so it can not give us d right answer.

Scenario three:
Assuming statement three is true and statements one and two are false, what does dat mean?
Statement three says d car is not in box one, assuming dat is true, den statements one which says d car is in dis box is false ( opposite will be "d car is not in did box" ) and statement two which says d car is not in dis box is false also ( d opposite will be " d car is in dis box" )
So in dis case everything tallies.
Statement three: d car is not in box one (true)
Statement one opposite: d car is not in dis box (true)
Statement two opposite: d car is in dis box (true)
All tallies.

Answer: Scenario three gives is the right answer. The car is in box 2! cheesy my award?
