Door C: Its in here
Door D: Its not in here

The spirit lies behind Door D.

If the spirit is behind Door A, then both B and D are true.

If the spirit is behind Door B, then both A and D are true.

If the spirit is behind Door C, then A, C, and D are all true.

If the spirit is behind Door D, then the statements on all the doors are false, except for that on Door B. This matches the rules, and therefore, the resort hotel spirit lurks behind Door D.

#19 - Statements Riddle

I travelled to Japan and stopped near a store in order to use the restroom. But the problem was that I could not speak Japanese and thus I was not able to ask which one was for males and which one was for females. I find a person who can understand English but can only speak in Japanese.

I desperately needed to go to the restroom. What two questions did I asked so I could figure with restroom was meant for whom ?

View Answer Discuss

The first question I asked was "Is this restroom for men?" while pointing at one of them. I just remembered the word he said. Then I asked "Am I a man?" Now I knew that the second response will mean yes only. Thus I could compare the second response with the first to find out if the restroom I pointed at was correct or not.

If he says the same word, then the restroom I pointed at must be for males only. If he said a different word, the restroom I pointed at will be wrong and for females.
