November 15, 2011
On a train, Smith, Robinson, and Jones are the fireman, brakeman, and the engineer, but NOT respectively. Also aboard the train are three businessmen who have the same names: a Mr. Smith, a Mr. Robinson, and a Mr. Jones.
- Mr. Robinson Lives in Detroit.
- The brakeman lives exactly halfway between Chicago and Detroit
- Mr. Jones earns exactly $20,000 per year.
- The brakeman’s nearest neighbor, one of the passengers, earns exactly three times as much as the brakeman.
- Smith beats the fireman in billiards.
- The passenger whose name is the same as the brakeman’s lives in Chicago.
