There are two tribes in Mars, Lie tribe and Truth Tribe.
Lie tribe always speaks lie, True tribe always speaks truth.
You meet three mars people and ask
From First Person: What tribe you belong to?, he replies something in his language which you don’t understand.
Second person tells that he is saying that he belongs to Lie Tribe.
Third person says that second person is lying.
What tribe does the third person belong to?

Trick is to start from first person. may be you want to think once again before reading the explanation 🙂.
Lets assume that first person is from Truth tribe, then he will say that i am from truth tribe, in this case second person is lying.
Now assume that first person is from Lie tribe, then also he will say that i belong to truth tribe(as he is a lier), so second person is lying again in this case as well.
Thus third person is correct in both the scenarios, hence he belongs to Truth Tribe.

the third person belongs to the lie tribe.
abhishek tejan says
see ,if u pick any person from any tribe and ask him that what’s your tribe then you will always get same reply from every person ,that is “I belong to Truth tribe ”
now ,second person told him that first person is saying that he belong to lie tribe ,which is not possible
that means second person is lying and he belongs to lie tribe
and third person is telling truth and he belongs to truth tribe. 🙂

“Now assume that first person is from Lie tribe, then also he will say that i belong to truth tribe(as he is a lier), so second person is lying again in this case as well.”
In this case second person is not lying, he is saying the truth that first person is a liar.
Wrong solution!!!
Ravi Kumar says
The statement is “Second person tells that he is saying that he belongs to Lie Tribe.” . But first person is saying to belong to truth tribe. So Second person is lying.
Charan says
In this case first person is lying not second person.
First person is a true tribe and he is saying that he belongs to lie tribe isn’t it?
