Isn’t elementary school math often more difficult than you’d expect? If you think carefully, you can figure things out, but as adults we tend to read too much into things or make unfounded assumptions.

Let’s try answering this quiz while teaching it to a child and getting back to basics ourselves.

[Logic Quiz] Let’s think about the heights of five people!

[Arithmetic Olympiad] Problems that smart elementary school students are solving! Can you solve them? (Logic Puzzle / Math Quiz) brain plus*

This is a puzzle where you look for contradictions in the statements of five people answering about their heights, and use them to figure out the correct answer and the order of their heights.

We don’t know who among the five is telling the truth or lying, and on top of that there’s an additional condition: “No two people lie in a row.” From there, you identify contradictory points.

The key to the deduction is the statement that “three people are lying.” First, you test this statement against the condition that no two lies occur consecutively to determine whether it can be true.

After narrowing down the number of liars using that statement, you then compare the content of each person’s statement with the sequence of truths and lies to derive the answer.
