Question

Read the following statements.

1. Jon, Elizabeth, and Franco read 27 books among them for a class.
2. Franco read 6 books.
3. None of the three students read more than 7 books.

Which two statements contradict each other?

Answer 1

@Vocaloid 2 and 3?

Answer 2

2 and 3 don't contradict each other. if franco only reads 6 that still satisfies statement 3

however, notice how if each student reads at most 7 books the total cannot be 27

so which two statements really contradict each other?

Answer 3

1 and 3? @Vocaloid

Answer 4
