Civil Service Candidates Math Puzzle

There are six civil service job openings. Thirteen candidates passed the civil service exam with equally high scores. So the administrators gave them all a second test. This one had only five questions, each with a Yes/No answer.

Three of those who were not hired had these answer sequences:

  • No, No, Yes, No, No

  • Yes, No, No, Yes, Yes

  • Yes, Yes, Yes, No, Yes
