can<\/em> actually be determined if a married person is looking at an unmarried person.<\/p>\nWe know that Jack and George are married but we don’t know whether Anne is married or not. \u00a0But it doesn’t matter whether we know whether she is married or not. \u00a0We do know, however, that she must be either married or not – she must be one of those two options.<\/p>\n
So, if she IS married, and we know she is looking at George, then a married person is looking at an unmarried person.<\/p>\n
Or, if she is NOT married, and we know John is looking at her, then a married person is looking at an unmarried person.<\/p>\n
It can only be one of these two scenarios, and in both cases, a married person is looking at an unmarried person.<\/p>\n
It’s very simple when you hear the answer!!<\/p>\n
