WHERE’S THE KEY?

ONE KEY IS HIDDEN IN EXACTLY ONE OF THREE DRAWERS. EXACTLY ONE OF THE THREE STATEMENTS IS TRUE.

NEED A HINT?

HINT 1

Try each possible drawer in turn. How many of the three statements would be true in each case?

HINT 2

The key cannot be in drawer A. That would make two statements true. Try drawers B and C next.

ANSWER

The key is in drawer B

If the key were in drawer A, two statements would be true. If it were in drawer B, only the statement on drawer A would be true. If it were in drawer C, two statements would be true. Therefore, the key must be in drawer B.
