Who Lives in the white house?
There are five houses of different colors next to each other equally spaced on the same road. In each house lives a person of a different profession.
- The blue house is adjacent to the mathematician’s and con-man’s houses.
- The first house on the left is green.
- The nurse lives immediately to the right of the mathematician.
- The teacher lives halfway between the plumber’s house and the yellow house.
- The nurse’s house is immediately to the right of the red house.
