August's EK Logic Problem -The Key to Sharon's Heart

The statements on the gold and bronze chests say the opposite, so one of them is true and the other false. Since ‘at most, one of the 3 inscriptions is true’ (1st clue in story), then the statement on the silver chest is false, so the key to Sharon’s heart is in the silver chest. On the second round of chests - cedar, teak, and maple, ‘at least 1 inscription is true and at least 1 inscription is false’ (2nd clue in story) so if the ring was in the maple chest, then all three statements would be true, which is contrary to what is given. If the ring was in the teak chest, then all three statements would be false, which is again is contrary to what is given. Therefore the ring must be in the cedar chest and we have the 1st two statements true and the last one false, which is consistent with what is given.

April's Spring Special - Knights, Knaves, & Jesters

A. It is impossible for either a Knight or a Knave to say, “I’m a Knave,” because a Knight wouldn’t make a false statement that he was a Knave, and a Knave wouldn’t make a true statement that he was a Knave. Therefore, A never did say that he was a Knave, so B lied when





he said A said that he was a Knave. Hence, B is a Knave. Since C said that B was lying, then he is telling the truth so he spoke the truth; hence, C is a Knight. It is impossible to tell what A is.

B. The answer is the same - B is a Knave and C is a Knight, although the reasoning is a bit different here. The first thing to observe is that B and C must be of opposite types, since B contradicts C. So of these two, one is a Knight and the other is a Knave. Now, if A were a Knight, then there would be two Knights present, hence A could not have lied and said there was only one Knight present; but then A, being a Knave, couldn’t have made that true statement. Therefore, A could not have said there was one Knight among them. So B’s statement to what A said is false, and B is a Knave and C is Knight, and A must also be a Knight.

C. Suppose A were a Knave. Then when A makes the statement “At least one of us is a Knave” it would be false since Knaves always lie; hence, they would both be Knights. Thus, if A were a Knave he would also be a Knight, which would be impossible. Therefore, A is not a Knave, he is a Knight, and since he is a Knight, then he tells the truth when he says at least one of them is a Knave. Therefore, A is a Knight and B is a Knave.

D. A must be a Knave, for if he were a Knight, then it would be true that all three are Knaves and hence that A too is a Knave, but then he’d be both a Knight and a Knave, which is impossible. So A is a Knave and made a false statement that all three were Knaves, so at least one of them is a Knight. Now, suppose B were a Knave. Then A and B would both be Knaves, so C would be the Knight, which would make B’s statement true, but if it were true, then B would also be both a Knave and a Knight, which is impossible. Therefore B must be a Knight, and from his statement, he is the only Knight, so A and C are Knaves.

E. In the 2nd part, if A says, “All of us are Knaves,” and B says, “No, exactly one of us is a Knave,” then it can’t be determined what B is, but we can determine what A and C are. A must be a Knave for the same reasons given above, so there must be one Knight among them. Now, either B is a Knight or a Knave. If he is a Knight, then it would be true that exactly one of them is a Knave, which we’ve already shown to be A, so that would make C a Knight. On the other hand, if B is a Knave, then C must be a Knight, since all three can’t be Knaves. However, it can’t be shown for certainty whether B is a Knight or aKknave, but in either case, C is a Knight.

F. To answer this one, one must use the information given that the stranger knew the answer after the inhabitant’s response. Suppose the speaker - lets call him A - had answered, “Yes.” Could the stranger have known whether at least one of them was a Knight? Actually, no. For it could be that A was a Knight and answered truthfully when he said “Yes” , or it could be that both were Knaves, in which case A would have answered falsely with a “Yes.” Thus, by getting a “yes” answer, the stranger really couldn’t have no way of knowing whether A was a Knight or a Knave, so A answered “No” to the stranger’s question. Therefore, the stranger can now know what A and the other inhabitant - lets call him B - are. If A were a Knight, he couldn’t have truthfully answered “No,” so A is a Knave. Since his answer is “No” and he is a Knave, then he is a liar, so there is at least one Knight present. Hence, A is a Knave and B is a Knight.

G. A cannot be a Knight, because a Knight would never say that he was a Jester. So A is either a Knave or a Jester. If he was a Jester, then B’s statement would be true; hence, B is either a



Knight or is a Jester, but B can’t be a Jester (since A is, according to this supposition) so B is a Knight. This would leave C a Knave. But a Knave cannot say that he is not a Jester (because a Knave really isn’t a Jester, so he’d be telling the truth, which would make him also a Knight). Therefore, A cannot be a Jester; hence, A is a Knave. Then B’s statement is false, so B must be a Jester, which leaves C as the Knight.

H. B says that “I sometimes tell lies and sometimes tell the truth,” so if B’s statement is true, he is a Jester and the other two would be lying and would be Knaves, but A and C gave opposite replies, so they couldn’t possibily both be Knaves; therefore, B is lying and since he can’t be a Jester, then he is a Knave. Since A said that B always told lies, then he would be a Knight as this would be true. Since C said that B always tells the truth, that would be a lie, but since we know there were one of each - Knight, Knave, and Jester, and A is a Knight and B a Knave, then C would be a Jester, and this was one of those times the Jester decided to lie.
