Okay, here's a quiz to further work up our stressed up brains. LOL

Story goes like this

4 Mexicans were caught by the US troopers and were buried into the sand up to their chins. All of them were given hats(2 x blue, 2 x red). They were then given 3 minutes to save themselves. If anyone of them shouts out the colour of their hat and got it correct within the time frame. All would be released. However, if someone shouts out and answer is wrong or no one shouts out within the time limit, the US troopers leave and the Mexicans would be left there to die. Also note that they could not turn their heads, could not communicate and only sees what is in front of them. The direction that they are facing is depicted as shown in the diagram. Colour of hat is shown. R-red and B-blue

After 1 minute, someone shouts out the colour of his hat and he is 100% sure that is the right colour. Answer is correct and Mexicans are then released.

Who's the smart ass?

Please kindly post your answers, with correct reasoning or questions in my tagboard. For those who have came acrossed this quiz, please shut it and dont spoil the fun k.

Correct answers will be rewarded. MWahahahha

Answer!

The smart ass is Sancho. Simply cos after 1 minute, Carlos did not shout out. Cos he could see both Pedro and Sancho, if both Pedro and Sancho are wearing the same colour hat Pedro would have shouted out his answer. The fact that he did not made Sancho realise that his hat must be a different colour to Pedro's. Hence the 100% probability there.
