26A MIND TEASER There are three extremely bright
men seeking the hand of Ms. Sweet Mensa. Sweet
loves her men smart, but cannot decide which one
of the three is the smartest. Consequently, she
proposes a test. Sweet places a mark on each
mans forehead and tells them that each of them
has either a blue mark or a red mark. She
instructs them to raise their hand if they see a
blue mark on either of the other two. The first
man to determine what color his mark is, and
explain how he arrived at that conclusion will
have her hand in marriage. Each man raised his
hand, and a few moments later, one of them had
the answer. What color was the winners mark and
how did he know?
ANSWER (click here to see it more clearly)
Since all three men raised their hands, the
winner knew there could only be two
possibilities. There had to be two blue and one
red mark, or three blue marks. If there was a
red mark on any forehead, the two men with the
blue marks would each see a red and a blue mark
and know immediately that his had to be a blue
mark since all three raised their hands. The
smartest man deduced that since nobody answered
immediately all three marks must be blue.
