Mensa IQ Riddle by alj(m): 9:19pm On Mar 28, 2006 |
i love riddles but this one fooled me for almost a week you are in a strange land and you are lost you come across a crossroads and you know that one road leads home the other leads to certain death in this strange land there are only two types of people, the first ALWAYS TELLS THE TRUTH HE CANNOT LIE the second always lies ,HE CANNOT TELL THE TRUTH. ONE OF EACH OF THESE MEN IS AT THE CROSS ROADS these men know what way leads home and which to certain death NOW YOU CAN ONLY ASK THEM ONE QUESTION AND IT MUST BE THE SAME QUESTION from this question you will know which road is the safe road CAN YOU THINK OF THE QUESTION? 1 Like |

@prodgalson,if u ask which way leads home to each of them u'll still get opposin answers cuz if right's the way home,the lair will say left and the honest man will say right and that won't solve the problem. i must say my friends and i have been crackin our brains on this 1 tryin to find what the question should be. |

This is a practical question I see no reason to even theorize it, I'll show my hands (both) to one of them and ask." do I have 5 fingers on each hand" if he says yes. thenĀ he says the truth so I ask Liar which way is home, and go in the opposite direction. liar on the other hand will obviously lie and say you have six fingers, so I go to truth and ask him the way home. QED In case you are interested in my theory it says establish the vera/vericityspelling of the obvious and apply the rules of logical conclusion. |

Re: Mensa IQ Riddle by broccx: 2:58am On Jul 26, 2010 |
ask each of them what the other would say then, go the other way. if "Road A" were the way home and "Road B" to Certain Death ask the "Truth Guy": where would the "Liar Guy" point if I asked him the way home? "Truth Guy" would point to "ROAD B" then ask the "Liar Guy": where would the "Truth Guy" point if I asked him the way home? "Liar Guy" would point to "ROAD B" both of them would point to the certain death road, you just go the other way. simple really. |

Riddles are cute and Peoms are beautiful. That was very nice up top. |
Re: Mensa IQ Riddle by Tantor: 11:45pm On Jun 27, 2011 |
broccx answer assumes you know which person is the truth teller and which is the liar, if you knew which was which you would not have the problem in the first place. Also you have to ask each the same question. |
Re: Mensa IQ Riddle by LordReed(m): 11:03am On Jun 28, 2011 |
How is this a trick question or a riddle? If the truth gut tells the truth always then and the liar always lies then the simple question which way leads to death will get you home. How much IQ do you need for that? Dig this riddle: As I was going to St Ives I met a man with seven wives Each wife had seven sacks Each sack had seven cats Each cat had seven kits Kits, cats, sacks, wives How many were going to St Ives? |
