- Hiten

I think generally the firemen will have their names on their pockets, this fireman would have had his name since he is wearing uniform.

Corrected Version:

I think generally the firemen will have their names on their pockets. This fireman would have had his name since he is wearing a uniform.

1) As Hiten told Lighthouse ... I guess.

2) Pour the second filled glass of juice into the second empty glass from the right side.

3) Others are women.

4) The last person will take the basket along with the egg.

Hi,

I found the ANSWERS to all the 4 Puzzles. Here it is:

ANSWER to the first Puzzle:

He was a lighthouse keeper who switched off the lighthouse.

Electric illumination in the form of carbon arc lamps was first employed at lighthouses at an early date, even while oil lamps were still in vogue. The first of these was at Dungeness, England, in 1862, followed by a number of others.

In the beginning of the 20th century Swedish inventor Gustav Dahlén invented the AGA Lighthouse which effectively made lighthouse keepers obsolete. However, for many years lighthouses still had keepers, partly because lighthouse keepers could serve as a rescue service if necessary. Improvements in maritime navigation and safety such as GPS have led to the phasing out of non-automated lighthouses, with the last keepers removed in the 1990s. Today there are a few keeper-run lighthouses left in existence; the vast majority, however, have been fully automated.

Puzzle 2:

Take the filled up glass from the middle and pour it into the empty glass which is placed 5th from left

Puzzle: 3

The last person takes the basket along with the egg

Puzzle: 4

There was only one man and the rest were women.

These answers might not be in order to the Puzzle numbered....but you know whick answer is to which puzzle.

Good ones though

Hi Leena,

Your explanations are excellent. Although many of us could understand that it's a lighthouse, your explanations for the same are fantastic and provide new learning, at least for me. Keep up the good work.

Hi Hiten,

They found the murderer as John because he is the only man present. Rest all are women.

Hey,
What's the answer to the first question?

Take the second glass filled with orange juice and pour it into the fourth glass, then replace the empty glass with the second position.

All except one were females.

The sixth person took the basket with the last egg in it.

Dear All,

Attached is a logical thinking puzzle. Please try to solve it. I will let you know the answers.
