Question No1: Triplet Brothers
There are 3 triplet brothers. They look identical. The oldest is Sam, he always tells the truth. The second is Peter, he always tells a lie. The third is Joe, he either tells the truth or a lie.
Jack went to visit them one day. He was wondering who was who. So he asked each person a question.
He asked the one who was sitting on the left: "Who is the guy sitting in the middle?". The answer was "He is Sam."
He asked the one who was sitting in the middle: "What is your name?". The answer was "I am Joe."
He asked the one who was sitting on the right: "What is the guy sitting in the middle?". The answer was "He is Peter."
Jack got really confused. Basically, he asked 3 same questions, but he got 3 different answers. Can you find out who is who?
The answer you are looking for is:
Who is the person sitting on the right?
Take the answer to this question and number the letters according to their position in the alphabet ie. A=1 B=2 C=3 etc.
The numeric value of the first letter to this answer = A
The numeric value of the third letter to this answer = B
Question No 2: What are the next 2 numbers?
Number 53 is derived from 72. 34 are derived from 53. 25 are derived from 34. What are the next 2 numbers in the sequence?
72, 53, 34, 25, CD, EF
Question No 3: What is the colour of my horse?
I have a horse. Do you know what colour it is?
Allan said, "I guess it is not black".
Brian said, "It is either brown, or grey".
Charlie said "I know it is brown".
I said, "At least one of you is right and at least one of you is wrong." What is the colour of my horse, if the colour is one of the above?
Take the answer to this question and number the letters according to their position in the alphabet ie. A=1 B=2 C=3 etc.
The numeric value of the first letter to this answer = G
The numeric value of the forth letter to this answer = H
Now you can go and find the cache at:
S 33, (B-D)D, G(H-A)((B+G+F)-H)
E 18, CE, (B-(G-C))(E-F)((B-E)+C)
First 2 Find honours go to Bear&Fox! Well done!
