1,435.7K Views
There are three boxes in a table. One of the box contains Gold and the other two are empty. A printed message contains in each box. One of the message is true and the other two are lies.
The first box says ‘The Gold is not here’.
The Second box says ‘The Gold is not here’.
The Third box says ‘The Gold is in the Second box’.
Which box has the Gold?
As the message contains one truth, the third says that the gold is in the second box, if it is to be true, then the first box message will also become true. So Gold cannot be in second and third boxes. Gold is in the first box.
