But I want to actually ask something. If it is cut partial, wouldnt it still have a partial effect? And even if is 1/5th wouldn't it still show the werewolf? Also love the riddles.
The bonus riddle is easy. We know that there is at least 1 werewolf, and when asked, all of the people said that there is at least 1 human, including that one werewolf. If that one werewolf lied about there being at least one human, that would mean that there are no humans at all. Meaning that all of the people there are werewolves with green eyes that responded Ozo.
Andrew Brasfield if 50g dissolves into a soup and you split it evenly to fifths, then each bowl is guaranteed to have 10g exactly. Since it dissolved completely.
Andrew Brasfield but theoretically if it dissolved evenly, each particle spread out perfectly even, then it would work. But I guess it might not spread out even, there could be a few particles off. Oops, my bad. 😆
Man, imagine the detective's face when he goes to that village, spends the entire day questioning every inhabitant only to realize that every single one of them is a werewolf ready to kill him.
But the fact that they all let themselves be questioned and didn't kill him argues that they're non-violent, which then begs the question why we have any right to turn 'our' werewolf back in the first place! If he's causing trouble, get him to move into the werewolf village where he'll fit in better, problem solved. Unless, of course, he asks to be turned back. Which, since he's a werewolf and always lies, means he'll be saying "NO, I don't want to be cured!"
@@Fledhyris 1 the Werewolf in question is terrorizing town. He needs to be stopped peruod. 2 the village of werewolves is not peaceful and are indeed violent on full moons; or else how did the carpenter get infected in the first place? It isn't like the flu. You have to attack someone or everyone wluld be werewolves.
Easy peasy. Step 1: Give the antidote to the carpenter because he looks like a werewolf. Step 2: Cook the goat and serve him to your guests. The antidote in the goat will cure the others if they were werewolves. Ensure that you make and serve a goat stock so that you don't lose any antidotey goodness. Step 3: Figure out why you have a laser cutter in an era where people dress like that.
What a weak laser, mine has a werewolf track and destroy function, you can just fire it and the laser will do the rest for you, killing that werewolf on the spot
Yep.if they lie,then it means one was human,those saying there is at least one human would be telling the truth,and werewolves can't do that.so either all of none are werewolves,and if the carpenter became a werewolf in that town,then they all must be werewolves!
@@DamnSonOnahorosha That is true, but for the riddle, we are given that there is *at least* one werewolf in the town, which eliminates the possibility that there are no werewolves in the town.
The bonus riddle is easy. If werewolves always lie and humans always tell the truth, and you know that the village has at least one werewolf (and thus at least one liar), the only way they all can say "at least one of us is human" is if they are _all_ lying, and are _all_ werewolves.
Based on the ending, where the carpenter tells you about the curse, it means he was aware he was a werewolf. Yet he still went to dinner with the rest of the guests, meaning he must have WANTED to kill you all

@Fledhyris Proudhon You don't have to lie to trick people, you can mislead people with the truth. But at the end of the day, my comment is a nit-pick sort of answer that goes against the spirit of these riddles.

no they arent. they said: atleast one of US is human, refering to either villagers, humans or werewolfs. OR they could all be humans who told the truth
Victoria Vejnø Lund I don't really understand your comment. They are all werewolves. Since you know one is a werewolf for sure and since he said at least one is human that means none are. The statement that there's a human is false (a lie).
@@zacharykarpiel1196 In that case its true, but they never said that they refered to the whole village. US' could've also mean the werewolves as a part and the villagers an a part. **They said: atleast one of **_us_** is a human** So a werewolf saying that means none of the werewolves are and a villager saying that means all the villagers are villagers. We never get an full answer.
There’s a good chance that before and after transformation the body is indistinguishable from a human’s, especially since the antidote didn’t kick in until the carpenter had already started transforming, so the allergy might not be triggered until it’s too late.
Everyone: "At least one of us is a Human" - At least one of them is a werewolf and always lies The absence of a falsehood is an impossibility, therefor all 100 must be werewolves?
Plot twist : You gave those people the anti-dote, But forgot to take one yourself, So immediately after the sun sits your eyes turn green, And then you ask the guard to leave, and he reply Ozo.
“Okay, I know one of you is the werewolf. I have the antidote right here. If you don’t want to be a werewolf anymore, come over here and eat this. If you want to remain a werewolf, I’ll just shoot you when you turn, cause if you’re okay with violently mauling people - even if only once a lunar cycle - then you’re an actual monster. And won’t have left me with any choice.”
For the bonus riddle: It looks like it wouldn’t actually matter what all the villagers agreed on. If they all said “There used to be a statue here,” that would still mean they’re all werewolves -as long as there’s at least one werewolf and all the villagers are telling the same story.
If we are only are allowed to use the machine once, then simply insert all possible cuts into the machine! Afterwards you can still arrange the pieces as you want, as you for sure know that you cannot make anything wrong if you make all cuts that are possible! ^^
"You only one shot at using the laser cutter." "It's actually easier to start experimenting and see where that gets you." I know these aren't mutually exclusive, but it's funny to poke at wording.
Crisis Creator All the villagers need to be the same because otherwise, they have the same statement but one is lying and the othrr is telling the truth
As a matter of fact, if it's possible to divide it in perfect size and we can assume that you have a balance at your disposal ( not against the rules, as you can have paper and scissors) you should always cut in the most pieces, ( every bigger form can be rebuilt with the smaller pieces). And after it you test with the pieces the right amount of weight. That as long as you don't have a limit of cuttings
The bonus riddle technically has 2 solutions: 1. They are all werewolves. If all of them said the same thing, then they must all be either telling the truth or all lying*. There is at least 1 werewolf, who must be lying, therefore they are all lying. *In reality, this can only be assumed if some specific global properties for truth, knowledge, and lying are assumed. A hand-wavy definition of knowledge must also be used. 2. There is not enough information. This question is ambiguous. There can be any number of humans/werewolves within the population, or no werewolves all humans, or no werewolves no humans. We do not know if werewolves have any way to tell whether someone else is a human or a werewolf. We can reasonably assume that most humans have no way to tell whether someone else is a human or a werewolf, though this is not guaranteed as our detective somehow managed to narrow the list to only 5 people in the first riddle, though since we do not know how they did it (perhaps they just waited for everyone else to be killed), we can not be sure whether they know a valid method. Taking this into account, if a human said, "at least one of us is a human", they must be talking about themselves, because they don't know about anyone else. If a werewolf said, "at least one of us is a human", it is not clear whether this counts as truth or lie. The only thing we know that they know is that they are a werewolf**. They know that the village contains at least 1 werewolf, but they do not know anything about how many humans are contained in the village. The statement is then a statement made without knowledge. The rules imply that such an ambiguity is impossible for either human or werewolf to make, thus we can even assume that a werewolf could not have made that statement, thus there are no werewolves. **But can a werewolf tell whether they themselves are a werewolf or not? If they cannot, then presumably neither can a human***, thus a human could not have made that ambiguous statement either, thus there are no humans. ***This is assuming that humans and werewolves have the same capacity for self-assessment. Moral of the story, anytime you introduce nebulous concepts like knowledge or truth, your riddle becomes ambiguous, unless you mathematically define both.
@@vinaypandey9548 I know. It is also stated that werewolves only tell lies, but a werewolf cannot necessary guarantee that the statement made is a lie, thus a werewolf could not have said it. My point is that the scenario contradicts itself if you do anything other than a surface level analysis of it.
What does "there is" mean then? Do we assume that there really "is" a werewolf out there? Might it just be a shadow projected on a wall? Can I even phrase this question, since I have not defined the word "what"? Nor how to deal with Questionmarks. Sometimes its good to just stay inside the box.. Honestly, to me the Riddle was clear :)
Interesting, but I disagree. If "werewolves always lies", I assume they never tell something that MIGHT be true (because of their lack of knowledge). So were they not sure about the total lack of humans in the village, they would not state the definite lie that "there IS at least one human". They would lie something different, that they can be sure about. (Like "there are NO werewolves here")
There are two possible answers to the bonus riddle: either everyone in the village is a werewolf or everyone in that village is human (because werewolves always lie, meaning that the carpenter sent you on a wild wolf chase)
@@ethanchen1266Same because if they are all human that contradicts the first of the two rules (He said there is at least one werewolf)and if any number of werewolves and humans are living in the town together then the werewolf/werewolves were telling the truth which contradicts the second rule (Werewolves always lie and humans always tell the truth) so the only possible answer is everyone that is living in the town is a werewolf.
The geometric solution is cool, I like this riddle. Practical solution? Dissolve the whole square into a volume of liquid divisible by five (25ml, say), then slip a fifth into each dinner. Bahwham!
@@aspiringcloudexpert5127 no, the laser cutter can be used only once a day or it will explode. hence why the label is on the cutter and not the cure. (or if you mean the cutter MUST be used once a day to not explode, throw a wood block on it and use the dissolving method)
I think I figured it out; the werewolves always lie, and everyone in the town claims that at least one of them is human. If a werewolf says so as well, that means everyone is a werewolf.
For the less geometrically gifted (like me), a more algebraic approach might involve using *every single* cut. Theres no rule saying to minimize the number of cuts, so this is fine. Then you have 8 pieces of size 1/24, and 16 pieces of each of the following sizes: 1/48, 1/80, and 1/120. One solution breaking it into 5 equal parts of size 1/5 is (4*1/120 and 4*1/24, 4*1/120 and 4*1/24, 4*1/120 and 8*1/48, 4*1/120 and 8*1/48, and 16*1/120), although there might be other solutions. To simplify the problem you might decide to only examine one quadrant of the cube since its symmetric, and use sizes 1/6, 1/12, 1/20, and 1/30 (which is what I did).
I literally just did every cut calculated the areas of 5 different triangles, as it was guaranteed to give us enough shapes to get 4/5 each. Not as quick, but seemed most intuitive.
Simple doesn't say the LEAST ammount of cuts. Just do all possibilities at once. I think finding some of the best ways to organise the shapes would be a good riddle (Like, how do you make a star? can you make all possible squares (can you make 1,2,3,4 and so on?))
Thought this would be a cool riddle about crime solving, turned into a boring geometry test instead, smh The bonus riddle was too easy btw, but still more fun than some geometry test
I just made every possible cut, which gives you 40 pieces, which is divisible by 5 ...and there's probably an insane amount of math-work to arrange those groups of 8 to be equal to each other?
Thurgor Supreme This was my idea at the start. As long as you find the fraction of each piece, which is relatively trivial, you should almost always be able to group them into 1/5

- At least one of them is a werewolf and always lies
The absence of a falsehood is an impossibility, therefor all 100 must be werewolves?
Yes
I’m frustrated because the riddle wasn’t about the people.
same...
I was really hoping to deduce who the werewolf was
Yeah, I was kind of hoping for a "who has the fish" sort of question.
I'm so used to whodunnits this was a sad change
Me too
“At least one of us is human”
“At least one of you have green eyes”
I see a pattern
Oh no! You gave the werewolf info to exit the dictator! We're doomed!
At least one of us have similar interests to you
i thought this was gonna be like “figure out who the werewolf is” but it’s just math
What did you expect from Ted-Ed? (BTW not complaining)
Wait till you watch the giant blob riddle which is actually about acute triangles
Me too
honestly, all the Ted ed riddles are math. it's almost tedious. Can everything truly be solved with math?
@I’m a random person indeed it is, I`m just getting a little bored of it :P
Plot twist :
You gave those people the anti-dote, But forgot to take one yourself, So immediately after the sun sits your eyes turn green, And then you ask the guard to leave, and he reply Ozo.
Or Ulu we don't know witch is yes
@@romanianpatriot3699 no the joke is... ah whatever i wont correct you
"At least one of us is a human."
Like a reverse green eyed logic riddle.
oh boy
You can just straightforwardly ask them who's the werewolf and tell them you've got the antidote. Who wouldn't want a cure, am I right?
But why would we be reasonable when we can be logical?
But all werewolves lie, remember?
“Okay, I know one of you is the werewolf. I have the antidote right here. If you don’t want to be a werewolf anymore, come over here and eat this.
If you want to remain a werewolf, I’ll just shoot you when you turn, cause if you’re okay with violently mauling people - even if only once a lunar cycle - then you’re an actual monster. And won’t have left me with any choice.”
Human and werewolfs: no am not wolf me no need
i think the werewolf doesn't know he is one haha
The carpenter looked a little shady right from the get-go, had a feeling he was up to no good
And the last person mentioned is always the villain.
Started making trouble in my neighborhood.
Got in one little fight and my mom got scared
For the bonus riddle: It looks like it wouldn’t actually matter what all the villagers agreed on. If they all said “There used to be a statue here,” that would still mean they’re all werewolves -as long as there’s at least one werewolf and all the villagers are telling the same story.
Unless they say "We are all werewolves", then that would mean all of them are human.

I would love to hear the narration of discovering that you’re surrounded by 100 warewolves and were set up by the one you cured in your home town.
“It looks like you were set up by the carpenter to die a grizzly death. Maybe you should have just shot him when you had the chance.”
1:39 You can tell whos the werewolf by just looking at the werewolf silotheute, as you can see its the carpenter.
Video: “can you solve the -?”
Me: “lmao nope but I’ll watch anyway
If we are only are allowed to use the machine once, then simply insert all possible cuts into the machine! Afterwards you can still arrange the pieces as you want, as you for sure know that you cannot make anything wrong if you make all cuts that are possible! ^^
I did that pragmatic solution as well :)
You’d still have to know how to arrange them. And you wouldn’t have enough time to just try every option.
Lol you’re right, but maybe cutting it too many times will cause the antidote to break off?
Yeah, I did the same thing. It would have been better if we were only allowed to make 4 cuts, which is just enough to get the intended solution.
Isn't the main problem that the antidote has to be a cube? Especially since it dissolves in the drink anyway
Trick Question: You were the Werewolf all along.
TED-Ed: “can you solve...”
Me: “no, but I’m gonna watch the video anyways”

I know these aren't mutually exclusive, but it's funny to poke at wording.
Well you can experiment on paper before using the laser.
Title: can u solve the ridlle

I don't even need math I knew the carpenter was the werewolf the moment I saw him in the video..lol but I want the answer of the bonus Riddle
It seems that the entire village are werewolves.
Crisis Creator All the villagers need to be the same because otherwise, they have the same statement but one is lying and the othrr is telling the truth
Crisis Creator Yep me too, the way he’s drawn hunched over with his arm hair showing totally gave it away
All the bastards are werewolves. They have a club meeting every Saturday night at 7:00
I guess I agree with the carpenter being the werewolf
Bonus question: just say 2+2 the liar will say the wrong answer
[Insert Name] That isn’t a question. If you were to say “What’s 2+2” then they would lie. But “2+2” is just a statement.
Knowing the answer to that isn't the same as telling the truth. Although I do agree with the fact that there are better ways to solve the solution
What if the liar was bad at math?
@@WordChemical The we may ask "is 2+2=4?"
vandan agrawal Did not think of that 🤔
As a matter of fact, if it's possible to divide it in perfect size and we can assume that you have a balance at your disposal ( not against the rules, as you can have paper and scissors) you should always cut in the most pieces, ( every bigger form can be rebuilt with the smaller pieces). And after it you test with the pieces the right amount of weight. That as long as you don't have a limit of cuttings
The baker's really excited for soup.
A bit too excited.
To get a vision of all possible cuts, I decided to draw all of them into one square.
I missed exactly the ones needed for the answer.

3:52 It feels like a reference to the logic puzzle because of the speech “At least one of you have green eyes.”
I knew it was the carpenter at the start, he seemed suspicious
I thought it was the mayor cuz... you know... politicians.
Me before watching the clues : The carpenter looks sus, vote him off
I thought the exact same thing and I was looking for someone who thought the same as me😂😂
"You have to use a laser, others are not precise enough"
**Uses a scissors to cut the antidote**
And given that lazers burn, the doses are no longer the required amount.
@@Dizz2K7 might be a portion so tiny it barely changes the effectiveness.
"Werewolf always tells lie."
Me: Gotcha, Mr. Carpenter!
Ex-werewolf, he tells the truth now.
The telling the truth riddle resembles the green eyes riddle I think.
Yes but the situation is different: in that you give the people informations and in this case the people give them to you
It's actually different because you don't rely on time passing to gain information. You instantly know they are all werewolves.
Rose Blue This riddle is significantly easier than the green eyes riddle, which is why the green eyes riddle is extremely well-known.
totaly does
i think it was structured after the green eyes riddle as a bit of a red herring. the actual logic for solving it is much different.

0:50 well that escalated quickly. .. use the laser to kill the guests.
Could you guys bring back some riddles that aren't math problems? You know, actual riddles?

This isn’t a math problem.
@@mr.cup6yearsago211 Geometry is a branch of mathematics.
Deadite So is logic, but people usually don’t complain about logic being math problems.
DBR Liamg But mathemathical logic is, which is usually connected somehow to many riddles.
The bonus riddle technically has 2 solutions:
1. They are all werewolves.
If all of them said the same thing, then they must all be either telling the truth or all lying*. There is at least 1 werewolf, who must be lying, therefore they are all lying.
*In reality, this can only be assumed if some specific global properties for truth, knowledge, and lying are assumed. A hand-wavy definition of knowledge must also be used.
2. There is not enough information. This question is ambiguous. There can be any number of humans/werewolves within the population, or no werewolves all humans, or no werewolves no humans.
We do not know if werewolves have any way to tell whether someone else is a human or a werewolf. We can reasonably assume that most humans have no way to tell whether someone else is a human or a werewolf, though this is not guaranteed as our detective somehow managed to narrow the list to only 5 people in the first riddle, though since we do not know how they did it (perhaps they just waited for everyone else to be killed), we can not be sure whether they know a valid method.
Taking this into account, if a human said, "at least one of us is a human", they must be talking about themselves, because they don't know about anyone else.
If a werewolf said, "at least one of us is a human", it is not clear whether this counts as truth or lie. The only thing we know that they know is that they are a werewolf**. They know that the village contains at least 1 werewolf, but they do not know anything about how many humans are contained in the village. The statement is then a statement made without knowledge. The rules imply that such an ambiguity is impossible for either human or werewolf to make, thus we can even assume that a werewolf could not have made that statement, thus there are no werewolves.
**But can a werewolf tell whether they themselves are a werewolf or not? If they cannot, then presumably neither can a human***, thus a human could not have made that ambiguous statement either, thus there are no humans.
***This is assuming that humans and werewolves have the same capacity for self-assessment.
Moral of the story, anytime you introduce nebulous concepts like knowledge or truth, your riddle becomes ambiguous, unless you mathematically define both.
But, it is provided to detective in question that there is at least one warewolf in group
@@vinaypandey9548
I know. It is also stated that werewolves only tell lies, but a werewolf cannot necessary guarantee that the statement made is a lie, thus a werewolf could not have said it.
My point is that the scenario contradicts itself if you do anything other than a surface level analysis of it.
why doesnt this have more likes.
What does "there is" mean then? Do we assume that there really "is" a werewolf out there? Might it just be a shadow projected on a wall? Can I even phrase this question, since I have not defined the word "what"? Nor how to deal with Questionmarks. Sometimes its good to just stay inside the box.. Honestly, to me the Riddle was clear :)
Interesting, but I disagree.
If "werewolves always lies", I assume they never tell something that MIGHT be true (because of their lack of knowledge). So were they not sure about the total lack of humans in the village, they would not state the definite lie that "there IS at least one human". They would lie something different, that they can be sure about. (Like "there are NO werewolves here")
There are two possible answers to the bonus riddle: either everyone in the village is a werewolf or everyone in that village is human (because werewolves always lie, meaning that the carpenter sent you on a wild wolf chase)
There is at least one werewolf, so everyone is a werewolf
@@ethanchen1266 at least ozo of the werewolfs have green eyes
@@ethanchen1266Same because if they are all human that contradicts the first of the two rules (He said there is at least one werewolf)and if any number of werewolves and humans are living in the town together then the werewolf/werewolves were telling the truth which contradicts the second rule (Werewolves always lie and humans always tell the truth) so the only possible answer is everyone that is living in the town is a werewolf.
Give the square to anyone and leave the house.
The werewolf will eat everyone there including the person with antidote
Thank you, finally someone as cruelly efficient as me! :-D
Yes exactly
I would cut it into 4s then if the were wolf was the one who didnt get the anti dote i would hide and have him eat 1 person with the antidote...
The geometric solution is cool, I like this riddle.
Practical solution? Dissolve the whole square into a volume of liquid divisible by five (25ml, say), then slip a fifth into each dinner. Bahwham!
how can you measure exactly a fifth (say 5mL) of liquid?
@@jackwuchannel like you'd have a lined eyedropper, idk
You have to use the laser cutter, or it will explode. At least according to the logic of the label.
@@aspiringcloudexpert5127 no, the laser cutter can be used only once a day or it will explode. hence why the label is on the cutter and not the cure. (or if you mean the cutter MUST be used once a day to not explode, throw a wood block on it and use the dissolving method)
*That awkward moment when I memorized the answer and how to get it because I’m afraid that my math teacher will have us solve this riddle*
Are you... Are you me?
Every bonus riddle from Ted Ed includes the sponsorship of brilliant
I think I figured it out; the werewolves always lie, and everyone in the town claims that at least one of them is human.
If a werewolf says so as well, that means everyone is a werewolf.
omg its almost like 10 other people have said this before you
And nobody thought of a half-human half-werewolf. Huh, odd.
@@iluvmilktea3224 half number of something still get into that categorize of "at least one of"

_simplified_... Dissolve the cube into the soup and pour it in 5 bowls with the same amount

No you cannot accurately divide the soup equally, and the requirement is 10g for each portion
Ironically, according to the warning at 1:23 , the laser cutter will also explode when it is not used.
Good one
@@tcxd1164 No
it means that laser can be used only once
does not mean has to be used
For the less geometrically gifted (like me), a more algebraic approach might involve using *every single* cut. Theres no rule saying to minimize the number of cuts, so this is fine.
Then you have 8 pieces of size 1/24, and 16 pieces of each of the following sizes: 1/48, 1/80, and 1/120. One solution breaking it into 5 equal parts of size 1/5 is (4*1/120 and 4*1/24, 4*1/120 and 4*1/24, 4*1/120 and 8*1/48, 4*1/120 and 8*1/48, and 16*1/120), although there might be other solutions.
To simplify the problem you might decide to only examine one quadrant of the cube since its symmetric, and use sizes 1/6, 1/12, 1/20, and 1/30 (which is what I did).
If he’s having a drink at Trader Vic’s and his hair is perfect, he’s a werewolf
You could also just cut every possible way and puzzle it together afterwards.

You know, you could just dissolve the whole square in the pot of soup, then divide the soup up instead xD
I like how at the end of the first riddle everyone is mad at you except for the mayor who still appears to be smiling.
That’s because the mayor is already bald
I just made every possible cut, which gives you 40 pieces, which is divisible by 5 ...and there's probably an insane amount of math-work to arrange those groups of 8 to be equal to each other?
Thurgor Supreme This was my idea at the start. As long as you find the fraction of each piece, which is relatively trivial, you should almost always be able to group them into 1/5
its divisible by something doesn't necessarily mean that they will form that many equal partition
all pieces are not of equal size
You don’t have enough time to try every possibility
