Three persons make statements. A says, "B is lying." B says, "C is lying." C says, "A and B are both lying." Who is speaking the truth?

  • AOnly A
  • BOnly B
  • COnly C
  • DA and C
Correct answer: B

Explanation

If B is truthful then C lies and A lies (A's claim that B lies is false), which is consistent; the assumption that A or C is truthful leads to a contradiction.
