Answer / deepak
Its ridiculous to see all of the people arguing here. its
clearly mentioned that the "boy spoke German" and the
family has one child. so it has to be a boy. No need to
consider anything else. Father spoke first.

Answer / keyrthy
Dont think that far.It is given in the question itself
that"The boy spoke German"itself signifying that the kid is
a boy,also the second one said "He is a girl" which is
meaningless it should be said"she is a girl"so it is a
false statement as per given condition men always speak
truth so this is not spoken by father,so first response
given by father

3 boys go to the restaurant. Their bill was 75 rs.. So they contributed 25 each. Manager then gives 5 rs back to the waiter and then waiter gave 3 rs back to them and put 2 rs into his pocket.. So their actual contribution is 24 because they got 1-1 rs back. so 24*3=72 and 2 rs into the waiter's pocket. so 74+2=74 where is 1 rs?
