We have five caps three of blue color and 2 of yellow color. We shuffle these caps and place one -one cap on all three guys heads such a way that all three guys don\u2019t know what color cap they are wearing. We hide remaining two caps so all three guys don\u2019t know what are the colors of remaining caps. From the sitting arrangement it is assumed that the person who is on stair #1 can see the caps of #2 &amp; #3. Similarly person sitting on #2 can see the cap of #3. But last person sitting on stairs #3 can\u2019t see anyone\u2019s cap. Just to reiterate no one can see their own cap color and there is no turning back to see the previous person\u2019s cap. Now I go to person sitting on stairs #1 and ask which color cap are you wearing? He replies I don\u2019t know. Then I go to person sitting on stairs #2 and repeat the same question. He replies I don\u2019t know. At last I go to person sitting on stairs #3 and repeat the same question. He replies I know. He tells me the correct color of cap he is wearing. Now you have to find out what is the color of cap person on #3 is wearing and how did he come to this conclusion.<\/p>\n<p>Above puzzle is pure logic and there is no tricks. Please submit your response. It is fun solving puzzlesJ.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey guys I remembered one old puzzle and thought of putting it on my web site.
