Puzzles

1)Three geniuses stand in a file (one behind the other).
Each can see only to the front, so the rear person can see
the middle and the front, the middle person can see the
front, and the genius in the front cannot see anyone. You
have five hats. Two are white, and three are red. You
blindfold the three geniuses, who are utterly truthful, and
put a hat--at random-on the head of each. Then you hide the
other two hats and remove the blindfolds. You then ask each
genius to name the color of his hat (which he cannot see).
The rear on says "I don't know." The middle on says, " I
don't know." Then the front onw says, "I know." WHAT COLOR
IS THE FRONT GENIUS' HAT?

2) one reasoning puzzle.
3) A monkey falls into a 30 ft well. Every day it climbs 3
ft up and falls 2 feet up. How many days will it take for it
to jump out of the well.

Question 2:

Monkey drops 30 ft on day 1 & climbs 3ft-2ft = 1ft. deep 29ft
day 2 & climbs 3ft-2ft = 1ft. deep 28ft
day 20 & climbs 3ft-2ft = 1ft. deep 10ft
day 29 & climbs 3ft-2ft = 1ft. deep 1ft
day 30 = 1ft. over
the well.
