serendib
Below is a quiz written by Albert Einstein. He said 98% of
the people in the world cannot solve the quiz. Are you among the 2%?

FACTS:
1. There are 5 houses (in a row) in 5 different colours.
2. In each house lives a person with a different nationality.
3. These 5 owners drink a certain beverage, smoke a certain brand of
cigar and keep a certain pet.
4. No owners have the same pet, smoke the same brand of cigar, or
drink the same drink.

HINTS:
1. The Brit lives in a red house.
2. The Swede keeps dogs as pets.
3. The Dane drinks tea.
4. The green house is on the immediate left of the white house.
5. The green house owner drinks coffee.
6. The person who smokes Pall Mall cigars rears birds.
7. The owner of the yellow house smokes Dunhill cigars.
8. The man living in the house right in the center drinks milk.
9. The Norwegian lives in the first house.
10. The man who smokes Blend cigars lives next to the cat owner.
11. The man who keeps horses lives next to the man who smokes Dunhill.
12. The man who smokes Blue Master cigars drinks beer.
13. The German smokes Prince cigars.
14. The Norwegian lives next to the blue house.

Very hard quiz. I'm working on it right now but i still have nothing. Btw can you tell me where you got this quiz? If you want to answer it the obvious choice is to make a logical grid except the hard part is that there are 5 variables (cigar, drink, house, nationality, and pet) If anyone has an answer to this problem please post it. And tell me how you got it too.

I'm only 14 too. My Latin teacher handed it out. I finished it in less than 30 minutes. You're right. It wasn't that hard to figure out. So much for Einstein!

It's depend on what do Einstein means by " right in the centre" --> it's the centre house/ or the house right to it.  then the answer will be the 4th house/ or the 5th house.

" + " means "definite"
" /  " means  "or" --> don't have enough evidences to tell

1st house: Norwegian + Yellow + Cat +Dullhill +Water

2nd house : Dane + blue + horse + Blend + Tea 

3rd house : Swede/ German  + Green + Dog/ Bird + Pall malls / Prince + coffee

4th house : Swede/ German + White + Dog/Bird + Pall malls/Prince + milk

5th house : Britian + Red +Fish + Blue master + Beer

So then. The Britian, live in the last hous, drink beer & smoke blue master is raising a fish

Where in the clues does it say anything about fish?

where in the facts does it say anything about fish?

Why would you assume that fish are automatically the last pet on the list? 

 the real answer is that there isnt enough information to deduce who has the fish or not. Sure the german may very well have the last open spot for the last animal which could just as well be a rat or a goose. Yes it could be a fish, but it doesnt say that for sure that the last animal would be a fish.
