    There were three guys namely Chester , Mike n Rob they all are
    considered as the the most logical persons . To decide among themselves
    that who is the most logical person they went to a master called Rick
    Rubin .
    So what Rick did is that he marked their foreheads with a colored
    dot , the dot marked is either of red or black in color . Nor Chester
    nor Mike and neither Rob knows that what color dot they are having on
    their own forehead but each one of them knows the color of the dot of
    other 2 persons forehead .

    Then Rick asked them to raise their hands if they see at least one red
    dot on other two persons forehead , all three of them raised their
    hands .

    Then rick asked them to tell the color of the dot they are having on
    their forehead. The one who answer the correct color and explain the
    correct logic for their answer is the most logical guy. But their was a
    silence for a little time no one of them is not able to answer the
    color they are having on their forehead then after a while Chester
    answers the correct color that he is having on his forehead .
    So can you explain what color is Chester having on his forehead and explain the correct logic for it.

    Chester was having black colour dot on his head.

    Reason: Two dots are marked in Red by Rick so as to make conditon "Everyone can see atleast 1 red colour dot in front of them" true so Mike and Rob each one marked with read colour dot and when Chester see both the red colour dots are in front of him , so black colour dot is on his head itself.

    Am I right? 😔

    chester have a red dot

    the others : one have a red dot and the other one have a black dot

    because who have a red dot raise his hand while the other one have a black dot

    wish i'm right 😉

    if i was right this competition isn't fair as the guy with the black dot will never be able to know his color

    @shalini: i said all three raised their hands.. so all of them are seeing a red dot atleast..you said since mike and rob see a red dot each chester will have a black dot..but how can he be sure that he doesnot have a red dot too...So you are wrong

    @sheeko: your answer is correct but your logical reason is wrong

    anyways buddies...enough of your guessing games!!!most of ur logics dont make sense...here is the final answer!!!!

    Chester answered he was having red dot .....

    now lets see how it comes.....
    as all three saw at least 1 red dot,its clear that there were two red dots,one black or all 3 red dots....

    now suppose chester was red & out of other two,one was black & other was red ,then chester should be able to tell his color 'immediately' bt so should be the other person having other red dot....

    next case...chester black...both other red..in that case..both others can tell their colors immediately,bt chester can never be sure whether he is black or red!!!

    so the only case remains all 3 are red!!!

    now why only chester answers after pondering 4 sumtym bcoz he is the most logical person!!!(@EnglishScared:this is the answer to the problem you were facing..may sound wierd..But it is the logic)

    Man, you said they raised their hands when they can see "atleast" one red dot . That means even if one looks one red and other black or as both red, then also they could raise their hands. This was the case I took.

    Anyways thanks for the answer sharing.
