Answers:
the child in back can see red and black, or 2 blacks, because if she saw 2 reds she would know her color was black!.the middle child can see black because if he saw red he would know his hat was black because the person in back did not know her own color!.Since neither of the first 2 children could guess correctly, the logical color for the first child must be black!. No guess work, just logic!.

if the 1st & 2nd wore red, then the 3rd would be black (since there were only 2 reds)!. So front two have one red, 1 black, or both black!.
now, if the 1st is red, then the 2nd knows he is black, but the 2nd could not reply, as the 1st is black!.
so the 1st came to know that he was wearing black!.!.!.!.

by process of elimination he would know!.!.!.even if the others got it wrong (he would know that it is the opposite of what they said) All he has to do is keep track Www@Enter-QA@Com
The guy behind him probably said the colour of his cap if he was sitting at the front anyway theres no blue so it was black

The two boys behind him both said their caps were black and they were both wrong, so the boy in front knew they both has red caps and therefore his must be black because there are only 2 reds!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
the child in the front is wearing black since either child behind sees one red one black they can't answer but he sees two red so he knows his is blackWww@Enter-QA@Com
The guy was a cheated and had setup the person who waas putting the hats on their heads
thats the only reason he knew
his was pinkWww@Enter-QA@Com

the last two must have guessed that their hats were black!. when they were both wrong, the first kid must have realized that the other two both had red hats so he guessed black and was correctWww@Enter-QA@Com
I know it but I cant be bothered to type it out!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
