Today’s Brain Teaser
The Two Doors Puzzle
The Two Doors
You find yourself in a room with two doors. One door leads to freedom, while the other leads to certain doom. There are two guards in the room, one in front of each door. One guard always tells the truth, and the other always lies. However, you don’t know which guard is which.
You can ask one guard one question to determine which door leads to freedom. What question do you ask?
Q. What question do you ask the guard?
Solution:
You ask either guard: “If I were to ask the other guard which door leads to freedom, which door would they point to?”
Explanation:
- If you ask the truth-telling guard, they will truthfully tell you that the lying guard would point to the door leading to doom.
- If you ask the lying guard, they will lie about the truth-telling guard’s answer, also pointing to the door leading to doom.
In both cases, the door they point to will be the door that leads to doom. Therefore, you should choose the opposite door to find the path to freedom.
