down to my last 3 questions!!! help please!?!
Nathan, Joshua, Michelle, and Denise were in a room where a porcelain vase was found broken. When an inquiry was conducted by the building caretaker, each made a statement.

Nathan: Michelle broke the vase.
Joshua: Nathan did it.
Michelle: Nathan lied when he said Michelle did it.
Denise: I did not do it.

The caretaker knew that only one statement is not true and concluded that Joshua broke the vase.

Nathan's and Michelle's statements contradict each other so one of the them must be the liar. Therefore, Joshua is telling the truth. Therefore, Nathan broke the vase.
