xx

Answer 1

one question each?

ok... i'll ask d 1st guy "do u have 2 eyes?"

if he says no... he's a liar... then i ask d other one (d truthteller) which door leads where

if he says yes... he's d truth teller... then i ask d other one (d liar) which door leads 2 which (but i do d opposite)

jeez... i'm a freshman, can't u guyz comprehend?

Answer 2

i'd ask the 1st dude, "which door would 2nd dude suggest?"

if 1st dude is the liar, he wud say door 1 is right for me to enter because the truth guy would say door 2.

if 1st dude is not the liar, he would say door 1 is for me to enter because the lying guy would say door 1.

either way take the opposite door the guy u asked suggested.

Answer 3

i ask "who is the lying man and tell me where the door that leads to freedom is?" and that way, the person who always tells the truth wont answer and the liar will answer and i can just reverse what he says and then BOOM! Im out :)

Answer 4

you ask "what will the other guy tell me is the right way"

and you go the oppisite way he says.

cuz if u ask the liar he will lie and tell u the way the truth guy wont say

and if u ask the truth guy, he knows the liar will lie and tell u the wrong way.

hope that makes sense lol

Answer 5

cant remember... but i new this once. ask... "whoever lies tell me the way to freedom" then do the opossite... thats not it but cant remember.

Answer 6

I wouldn't ask a man a question I would say: If you point me to the right door, I will give you $10000. Then the man would point me to the door and then I would give him the money. If he gave me the wrong door I would never escape so he wouldn't get the money so he would tell me the right answer

Answer 7

position yourself so one door is someway to your left and the other on your right in the room. ask the honest one if the door to freedom is to the right of you. if he says yes, it's the right door, if he says no, it's the left door.

or you could ask the liar, and just do the opposite of what he says.

Answer 8

r u the liar? idk

Answer 9

are u the liar infront of the torture room?...lol..i dunno...

Answer 10

If I ask the other man which way to go, what would his answer be? ? to any of the two, they both will say the same door and just go to the other door.
