It's A.

If Anne is married, she's looking at George who is unmarried.

If Anne is unmarried, Jack is looking at her, and he's married.

I'd say cochlea, providing 'Irish' is a typo.

The poison was in the ice cubes.

Answer is B , no
The secret of brain teaser is to pick your answer frm d info given, u dnt need extra info or assumption.
You dnt need to know if Anne is married or not.
Fact is Jack is married and George is unmarried.
Is married aka Jack looking at unmarried aka George? NO

The correct answer is, YES, a married person is looking at
an unmarried person.
Most of us believe that we need to know if Anne is married
to answer the question. But think about all of the
possibilities. If Anne is unmarried, then a married person
( Jack) is looking at an unmarried person (Anne). If Anne is
married, then a married person (Anne) is looking at an
unmarried person (George). Either way, the answer is yes.

For the 'married' question.... The answer is yes'
For the coin question.. U simply put the coins in ur mouth by bending down nd picking dem up with ur tongue. U can den know heads from tails
For the pirate question... The answer is 50... Remember each time a mutiny happens, we have a NEW captain. If he gives pirate A one gold and pirate B zero etc they will both simply vote against him irrespective cos he is still cheating dem. It's inevitable that being pirates, they will still vote against the captain unless he shares it equally with them. Which isn't going to happen seeing as he is seeking the maximum a captain can take. This will go on until they are just two and any vote against dem selves.
Re: Solve This Puzzle by IamUdo(m): 8:00pm On Jun 28, 2016
No. Because George is married. And Jack is not married.

In other news, do you need a natural permanent hair removal solution? Have you heard about thanaka powder and kusumba oil? Google and read more about both of them and send an email to kinibd@yahoo.com if interested in purchasing. Thanks.

In as much as one married person is looking at an un-married person.
The answer is YES.
