One day a very rich man was counting his money when he got a very important phone call and he had to leave in a hurry. In his haste he left a one hundred dollar bill on the table. When he came home he noticed the money was missing and he asked the two only other people in the house what happened. The maid said she saw the bill on the table while dusting the library and she hid it under the book. The butler said he got the bill and put it between pages 35 and 36 because he thought it would be safer in the book than under the book. One of them is lying. Who? Why?

Butler is lying. Because Page No 35 & 36 are on same paper. We can not hide it.

Three sisters are identical triplets. The oldest by minutes is Sarah, and Sarah always tells anyone the truth. The next oldest is Shreya, and Shreya always will tell anyone a lie. Shirin is the youngest of the three. She sometimes lies and sometimes tells the truth.

Vikram, an old friend of the family's, came over one day and as usual he didn't know who was who, so he asked each of them one question.

Vikram asked the sister that was sitting on the left, "Which sister is in the middle of you three?" and the answer he received was, "Oh, that's Sarah."

Vikram then asked the sister in the middle, "What is your name?" The response given was, "I'm Shirin."

Vikram turned to the sister on the right, then asked, "Who is that in the middle?" The sister then replied, "She is Shreya."

This confused Vikram; he had asked the same question three times and received three different answers.

Who was who?

Eliminate all the days of the week except for one, and to be forthright about it, this day is NOT the day after Sunday or the day before Wednesday. It can't be that Saturday is tomorrow, nor can it be that Saturday was yesterday. It most certainly couldn't be two days before yesterday, and while we're at it, let's eliminate Thursday.

What day is it?
