Three Hats

November 8, 2007 by Vurdlak | Email This Post

The magician puts 3 black hats and 2 white hats in a big box. He asks three volunteers (we will call them A, B and C) to come and reach into the box and place one of the hats on their own head.
The volunteers cannot see which color is the hat they choose.

The person A is situated in a way that he can see the hats on person B and C's heads. The person B can only see the hat on C's head.
The person C cannot see any hats.

The magician asks all three volunteers to name the color of their hats.

The person A said that he doesn't know the color of the hat he is wearing.
The person B also didn't know the color of the hat he is wearing.
The third person said that he knows the color of his hat. And he answered correctly.

What is the color of his hat?
