You are lost in a land of the honest and dishonest. The honest men can only tell the truth, and the dishonest can only lie. You need to ask for directions, so you approach a group of three men and ask if they are honest. The first man says, "Two of us are honest," and the second man says, "Actually only one of us is honest." The third man says, "That last man who spoke is honest." How many of the men - and which ones - are honest?

the last man is d honest man amonge them

Apparently with common reasoning it's de third man..

apparently,3 of them are honest.Reasons is becos u said that in dat land d one dats honest speaks d truth $ d 2nd man said dat there is only one honest person,d 3rd man confirmed wat he said $ said dat d 2nd man is d person,and dat makes d 3rd person a honest person cos he said d truth,we now have 2 honest persons and rem. at first d Ist man said dat there are 2 honest persons and now he is right and dat means he is telling d truth so he is included and dat makes d 3 of them honest.
