Buddy said, "My house number is greater than 70. Abe's house number is greater than 30." Carmen said, "My house number is both a cube and a square. Dennis's house number is greater than 50." Dennis said, "My house number is a square. Buddy's house number is a cube." Earl said, "My house number is twice Buddy's" But who's telling the truth?
