The code is 042

738 eliminates 7,3, and 8
780 guarantees that 0 is one of the numbers
682 and 206 mutually eliminate 6, also fix 2 at left, and make 0 in the wrong place
206 and 614 eliminate 1, and select 4
206 now resolves 0 to be at left, and 4 in middle

602 is d key to unlock it

ngwababe:
It's either 660,

Wrong

Hint 2 says one number is correct and wrong placed in 614 but in your case no correct number is wrong placed

Hint 5 says one number is correct and wrong placed in 780 but in your case no correct number is wrong placed

220,

Wrong

Hint 3 says two numbers are correct and wrong placed in 206 but in your case only one correct number is wrong placed (6)

202

Wrong

Hint 2 says only one number is correct and wrong placed in 614 but in your case no number is correct

Hint 3 says two numbers are correct and wrong placed in 206 but in your case only one correct number is wrong placed (2)

602

After all consultation and analysis done, 042 is the right answer.

Obinoscopy:
The issue is that it's not just only two numbers (it's three). So it means the hint should have said "three numbers are correct but wrong placed" and not "two numbers are correct but wrong placed". The answer is actually 042. Crosscheck it and confirm.

Well said and that's where you're convinced. Take a look at the 2nd and 5th hint (614 and 780) respectively, you'll agree with me that the 5th hint has override the 2nd hint which is actually talking about the digit '6' not the '4' you think. Digit '4' is not inclusive in the 5th hint which says one number is correct but wrong placed.

Where are the genius in the house?

602 is the correct answer

worlexy:
602 is the correct answer

Hint 3 rules this out

Correct answer is 042. Arguing any thing other than this just shows lack of intelligence

The second hint is talking about digit '4' not '6' cos the third hint eliminated '6' as one of the digit.


Since hint 3 is not "Three numbers are correct but are wrongly placed". That means one of the no is incorrect and that is '6'

042

Hmm

But in the second image it says 614 : One number is correct but wrongly placed

yes, and that's '4'

Check the third hint, you ll see why '6' can't be there

You have a point though

Bros if we carry harmer and chizle the padlock will be correctly open and placed...

Lack of intelligence on your part right?

660............

Look closely, 6 is impossible because it makes hints 1 and 2 invalid

The answer is 042...while 062 may seem like the answer, it is definitely not the answer....

Good observation... But how will you treat the 5th hint? That's the question.

The 5th hint is referring to '0'. its the only correct number wrongly placed there

Apologies.... You're very well correct. Now it's clear to me

Explanation on how it's 042:

Hint 1: The 2 in 682 is correct and well placed (3rd digit just as in 042)

Hint 2: The 4 in 614 is correct but wrong placed (3rd digit instead of 2nd digit in 042)

Hint 3: Both 2 and 0 in 206 are wrong placed (1st digit instead of 3rd and 2nd digit instead of 1st respectively in 042)

Hint 4: No number in 738 is in 042

Hint 5: The 0 in 780 is correct but wrong placed (3rd digit instead of 1st digit in 042)

Thanks a lot for this breakdown.. I had no inkling about the whole puzzle until you took the time to break it down.. Thanks once again and God bless you
