Read the following information carefully and answer the question
You come across three women, one of whom is an excellent singer. You start questioning them when you notice that Minaxi is wearing a flower in her hair.
Madhuri: I am not a singer. The singer wears a flower in her hair.
Minaxi: I am a singer. The singer is amongst us.
Jaya: Madhuri is the singer. Minaxi is not the singer.

Who is the singer?

पर्याय

• Madhuri

• Minaxi

• Jaya

• Cannot be ascertained

Answer 1

Jaya
Explanation:
We will check the truthness of each of the statements of each person.
Suppose, the first statement of Minaxi is false and the second is true. Then, Mina.xi is not a singer and the singer is amongst them. Now, from this, it is clear that the second statement of Jaya is true. So, the first statement of Jaya is false. It means that Minaxi is not a singer and also Madhuri is not a singer. Now, it is dear that the first statement of Madhuri is true i.e. Madhuri is not a singer. Therefore, the second statement of Madhuri becomes false i.e. The singer does not wear a flower in her hair.
Hence, Jaya is the singer.
