Question

Three jars - a, b, c all have wrong labels. in how many trials, can you put the correct labels on them.

Answer 1

Let the jar a be labelled as A, b as B and c as C
if we try to label them correctly then
a b c
A B C
B C A
C A B
A C B
B A C
C B A
Either of these would be correct

So we need atmost 6 trails to label the jars correctly.

HOPE IT HELPS....

Answer 2

let jar a has a wrong label as 1
jar b has a wrong label as 2
jar c has wrong label as 3
Attempts:-
a  b  c
1  2  3
1  3  2
2  1  3
2  3  1
3  1  2
3  2  1
In one these 6 attempts, the jars will have correct labels.
