Ties (Posted on 2002-05-29) Difficulty: 2 of 5
There are 3 gentlemen in a meeting: Mr. Yellow, Mr. Green and Mr. Brown. They are wearing yellow, green and brown ties. Mr. Yellow says:

"Did you notice that the color of our ties are different from our names?"

The person who is wearing the green tie says:

"Yes, you are right!"

Who is wearing what color of tie?

Obviously, from the problem each man cannot have the color tie of his name.

The man with a green tie replies to Mr Yellow, so Mr Yellow must have the brown tie.

This leaves Mr. Green with the yellow tie and Mr Brown with the green tie.
