    Direction: 'Kya-Kya' is an island in the South pacific The inhabitants of 'Kya-Kya' always answer any question with two sentences. One of which is always true and the other always false.
    You find that your boat is stolen. You question three inhabitants of the island and they reply as follows John says, "I didn't do it Mathew didn't do it."
    Mathew says, "I didn't do it. Krishna didn't do it." Krishna says, "I didn't do it. I don't know who did it." Who stole your boat?

    A)  John                           

    B)  Mathew           

    C)         Krishna          

    D)         None of these

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Let us assume first part of the first statement to be true, then second part will be false. If we relate these results with second and then third statements assuming one part to be true and other false. Then, we will find that answer is Mathew. On the contrary, if we assume first half of the first statement to be false and second to be true, then there will be two answers John and Krishna, which cannot be true. Hence, the correct answer is Mathew.
