Twaci: Lol. Smart one. I thought of that too But then, this has more to do with logic, than probability. If D was actually playing cards alone, I believe it will be stated so as to ascertain another point of concentration. And if it was stated, then the puzzle will be filled with assumption. People coming up with different opinions. And when you examine it, you'll notice that every other person can do the things alone. So why do you think D's act is questionable? And that is why we can't just sit and assume what H was doing. It's a puzzle, the answer of a puzzle will always be in the puzzle. 2 Likes |

Twaci: VickyRotex:I've already given the best answer, it's a puzzle. In d alphabets ,H comes before I, but in the puzzle it's MISSING. 1 Like 1 Share |

AdeniyiA: lol. Everybody knows that the Alphabet H is supposed to come before I. And everyone knows that H is missing as an alphabet there. That obviously is the fisrt speculation. But the question says what is H "Doing" not "Where" is H. How can there be 9 people in the house, and H(9th person) is missing? Besides, its not about alphabet now, its about people. You and I know that those alphabets were just used to replace names. Need I say that the original puzzle was about D playing chess. But the Op changed it to playing cards. Cool. Now who's playing chess with D? if we wanna base our speculations on alphabets rather than subjects. I think this has to do more with the content, than alphabet representation. Then again, those are just my thoughts. I'm sure Op will have the best explanation to this. Se finis! Op!!! Come here and answer your puzzle o 1 Like |

VickyRotex:I think your explanation is flawed in the sense. that it could have been a known fact overtime that the house accommodates 9 children, but at this particular point in time - visitation, a child is not in the house. Furthermore, the question was not "what is He DOING, of course anyone missing was not expected to do/be doing something 1 Like |
Re: The Nine Children(brain Teaser) by VickyRotex(f): 9:30pm On Jun 15, 2015 |
AdeniyiA: Hian!!! you dont seem to get my explanation... The original question is "What" is H doing? I guess you should look out for the original puzzle. I've seen it countless times. Look at this:@bolded. It's a present term There "are" nine children in the house, and only them are in the house. H is a personality, not an Alphabet! Dont wanna argue again. Ciao 1 Like |

VickyRotex:i'm not good at arguing either, just to let you know that being dogmatic in solving puzzles is not advisable. it could actually be about ALPHABETS & not PERSONALITIES You can as well give us your answer |
Re: The Nine Children(brain Teaser) by VickyRotex(f): 9:58pm On Jun 15, 2015 |
AdeniyiA: Oh well, I already gave my answer with various speculations, but you kept hovering around one point. It's flexible. I gave supporting ideas why I think the answer shouldnt be "H" is missing rather H is playing cards. But then, different sides to a coin. We view things from different perspectives. Cool |

VickyRotex:But the SOLITAIRE intro punctures your answer |
Re: The Nine Children(brain Teaser) by VickyRotex(f): 10:10pm On Jun 15, 2015 |
AdeniyiA: How did it puncture it? I stated earlier, that this is more of logic, than probability. (Solitaire is probability) Read my explanation up there. Bros, we've derailed this thread enough, let others come in and give their own answers and explanation. I've given my own answer, I may be right, I may be wrong. But I've defended my point, that's all that matters. Ciao again. |
