Logic Puzzle

Hi everyone-

I'm Justin and I was wondering do you know what logic puzzles are?

Well, whether or not you do, here is an easy example for you to look at:

Alex, Maya, and Tom all like sports. It’s your job to find out who likes basketball the most, who likes soccer the most, and who likes volleyball the most.

Clues:
Alex and Tom both like sports where you have to get the ball into a net to score.
In Tom’s favorite sport you’re not allowed to kick the ball.


                 To solve this problem, you can copy it onto a piece of paper or print this out, so you can write on it. Then, you put an X in the boxes that people’s favorite sports can’t be, and a check in what you think their favorite sport is. Please reply with a sentence that has what you think Alex, Maya, and Tom’s favorite sports are.

  1. I think Tom likes basketball the most. If they are only allowed to have one favorite sport then I would say that Alex likes soccer and Maya likes volleyball. But, there really wasn't any information about Maya's preference.
