Prepositional Reasoning
Q.14 ) There are three categories of people on this island. Nobles, who always tell
the truth, scoundrels, who always lie, and spies, who can do either. You'll
encounter three persons in these puzzles: a noble, a scoundrel, and a spy. The task
is to figure out who is who. "I am a Noble," says A. "A is a Noble," says B. "If
you asked me, I'd say A is the spy," C says.
It can’t be determined.
Scoundrel
Noble
Spy
Answer: Can’t be determined.
Explanation:
If A is telling the truth which will lead to proving that B is saying the truth,
then we have to conclude that C is lying. Thus the answer would look like
A → Noble
B → spy
C → scoundrel
However, if we also include the case where we will consider that A and B are lying,
while C is telling the truth, then the answer would be
A → spy
B → scoundrel
C → Noble
Q.15 ) In the year 2003, February had 28 days and the year had 365 days. In 2004,

year. Which of the following would be the day for March 11, 2004, if the date March
11, 2003, is a Tuesday?
Monday
