Friday OT #3- Logic Test

[Mr Janny]

Some of you might have seen this one before as it's been around for 50+ years. It's a simple test to see how logical you are.

Here's how it works:
You have a set of cards in front of you. Each card is labeled with a number on one side and a letter on the other side. You are then given the rule that if a card has a vowel on one side, then it must have an even number on the other side. Four cards are then placed in front of you.

Which card or cards do you have to turn over to determine whether or not the rule has been followed?

(Just post your answer, wait to post your reasoning until after we get a few responses)

 

[cycloneG]

The E card

 

[cjs24]

E and 9

 

[CloniesForLife]

The E and the 4?

 

[CloniesForLife]

E and 9

Yeah after thinking about it some more I believe this is the correct answer.

 

[stormchaser2014]

The E and the 9.

 

[Clone2Dbone]

I think E and 9, also.

 

[CYCLNST8]

 

[cyclones500]

E only.

 

[ISUKing]

all of them

 

[keepngoal]

E and 9.

Spoiler

Make sure there is an even number behind the E, and make sure there isn't a vowel behind the 9.

There are no rules for constants in having only an odd or even number.

 

[Angie]

E and 9.

 

[Cyclones_R_GR8]

I originally said E but now after seeing cjs24's answer I too agree with E and 9

 

[coolerifyoudid]

All of them. It's the only way to eliminate an exclusion to the rule

 

[CloniesForLife]

E and 9.

Make sure there is an even number behind the E, and make sure there isn't a vowel behind the 9.

Yup

Damn, one mod sabotages another mod's thread.

 

[TXCyclones]

E

Based off of your rule that "if a card has a vowel on one side, then it must have an even number on the other side" the "E" is the only one that applies. The rule does not state the opposite that an "even number must have a vowel".

I followed directions!

But you must make sure that there is not a vowel on the other side of the 9

OK, I guess you're right, technically. I just thought you would have given it a little more time for more to answer.
