-
- First, it's not horse, it's mule.
seeing that each one stole an animal, what B says is a lie.
Now, if A says the truth, then A stole the mule, B stole the sheep and C stole the camel.
This is the answer. - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(13) No(3)
- A has stolen Mule,
B has stolen Sheep and
C has stolen Camel
as,
A says "B had stolen sheep"
IF A is speaking truth then => A-> Mule, B-> Sheep, C-> Camel
IF A is speaking lie then => A-> Camel, so, B or C has stolen the Sheep or Mule,
but if B -> Mule, then he is speaking the truth that he has not stolen anything. which is not possible and if B has stolen Sheep then C-> Mule, but C says that B has stolen Mule, that means he's lying.
Hence both B and C both cannot steal the Mule.
So, A-> Mule, B-> Sheep, C-> Camel - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(13) No(0)

- A is telling truth so it has stolen the mule (horse)
B is telling a lie.. bcz 3 of them have stolen atleast one of the animal..
so B has stolen sheep, as A says who is saying the truth..
and the remaining one.. C is lying that B has stole mule..
So C has stolen camel - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
