Ok, if anyone on here can get this WITHOUT CHEATING, you will be in the top 2% of the population. I urge you to try it before you look it up. It's a lot of fun.

My uncle did it in 15 minutes, his son, my cousin did it in 18 minutes...I'm sorry to say it took me longer...4 hours. But still...good time, and I'll give you a hint, I was looking to far into it! If you give me a guess I'll tell you why the 98% won't get it. Good Luck.


ALBERT EINSTEIN'S RIDDLE

There are no tricks, just pure logic, so good luck and don't give up.

1. In a street there are five houses, painted five different colours.
2. In each house lives a person of different nationality
3. These five homeowners each drink a different kind of beverage, smoke different brand of cigar and keep a different pet.

THE QUESTION: WHO OWNS THE FISH?

HINTS

1. The Brit lives in a red house.
2. The Swede keeps dogs as pets.
3. The Dane drinks tea.
4. The Green house is next to, and on the left of the White house.
5. The owner of the Green house drinks coffee.
6. The person who smokes Pall Mall rears birds.
7. The owner of the Yellow house smokes Dunhill.
8. The man living in the centre house drinks milk.
9. The Norwegian lives in the first house.
10. The man who smokes Blends lives next to the one who keeps cats.
11. The man who keeps horses lives next to the man who smokes Dunhill.
12. The man who smokes Blue Master drinks beer.
13. The German smokes Prince.
14. The Norwegian lives next to the blue house.
15. The man who smokes Blends has a neighbour who drinks water.

ALBERT EINSTEIN WROTE THIS RIDDLE EARLY DURING THE 19th CENTURY. HE SAID THAT 98% OF THE WORLD POPULATION WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO SOLVE IT.

[KrisKitten]

I spent about 2 hours going COMPLETELY the rong way about it, had about 14 different lists, then tried a table (lol l8a found thats the way its meant to b done )
after 3 hours i came up with this answer, googled and its right
highlight to see
>>>German in the 4th house which was green<<<

 

[dizzyisacow]

[KrisKitten]

you make a table wth house numbers along the top & nationality, drink, colour, pets & smokes along the side and fil it in using the clues xxx

 

[Beccax3]
