Mr. Colorful
523.6K Views
At a local bar, three friends, Mr. Green, Mr. Red and Mr. Blue, were having a drink. One man was wearing a red suit; one a green suit; and the other a blue suit. “Have you noticed,” said the man the blue suit, “that although our suits have colors corresponding to our names, not one of us is wearing a suit that matches our own names?” Mr. Red looked at the other two and said, “You’re absolutely correct.” What color suit is each man wearing?
Mr. Red was replying to the person in blue suit. Since Mr. Red wasn’t wearing Red suit as per the puzzle, the only colour remaining is Green.
Hence, we have following mappings.
Mr. Red –> Green suit
Mr. Blue –> Red suit
Mr. Green –> Blue suit
