Can I tell you who has fish at home? My answer is no, not with absolute certainty. But I can assume that the German does.

We're just assuming the last pet is fish because you ask who has the fish. The German could really have chipmunks for all we know based on these facts.

If you want to see who is without a pet, it helps to make a chart to see the relationship between everyone. Once you fill all the spaces, you see that the only space left is the pet for the German, and since everyone else has it covered, then maybe he keeps fish.

The chart would be something like numbering your columns 1-5 to represent the five houses. Then your rows would be the categories (nationality, color, pet, etc). We know the Norwegian lives in the first house, so we can fill in that space. Then we know the Norwegian lives next to the blue house, and since we also know he's in the first house, then the second house must be the blue house. Continue to fill in the chart this way, and eventually we see the German might have the fish.

Again, this is an assumption that the German has fish since he is the last one left without a pet on the chart. Now, can I tell you with absolute certainty that he indeed has fish? No, because it was never stated as a fact that someone has fish. We can only assume because you ask who has fish at home.

The Briton?

Swedish.

ha now british fish an chips best in world.
sweden does dried smoked fish i think
danish make beer an bread that goes wiv fish
germans do picked type fish
norway is cold so eskimos an seals live ther as do penguins so must be fish ther
so i would say depends on what type of fish ya lookin for
if you cant decide hay a holiday may be in order go to each of these places an try some of each

You probably should have asked for the whole thing but, the answer is:The German who owns the cat who lives in the green house, drinks coffee and smokes Prince.

White-Swedish-Dog-Beer-Blue Master
Yellow-Norweigan-Cat-Water-Dunhill
Blue-Dane-Horse-Tea-Blend
Red-Briton-Bird-Milk-Pall Mall

There's proof, the answer could have easily been guessed; I spent my whole computer class searching for this answer, lol.

I have solved this before. I got the file by name Einstein Quiz and it was written that thius puzzle was originally developed by Albert Einstein himself who said only 2% people could actually solved it.

I have solved it twice but don't remeber the answer

But I am sure more than 2% people can solve it. I could do it again but who is gonna do that for 10 points

1.

I have absolutely no idea, but wow, very good riddle.
I look forward to see what the answer is.

Do a search on the internet for Einsteins riddle. It will give the answer and you can probably find somewhere that explains the logic of how it is calculated. I've done this before, but I don't recall the answer and cannot be bothered to work it out, takes like 10-15 minutes to go through it all...

Its rather easy if you write it down on a chart. The problem that gets most people with this, is that they only note what information they know to be true, and forget to keep in mind also what they know to be false...
