Babloo and Bunty were excitedly describing the result of the First nnual Running Race at Damapur High School. Snehal, Tanmay and Waman had been the three contestants.
“Tanmay won the race; Waman was in second place,” reported Babloo. Bunty disagreed. “It was Snehal who won. Tanmay came second.”
In fact, neither Babloo nor Bunty had given a correct version of the result as each had made one true and one false statement.
It is given that there are 3 racers. Hence the rank given will be 1,2 and 3
Let us assume the first statement of Babloo is true, then the second will be false(Hence Waman is not in $$2^{nd}$$ place). Based on this the ranking will be as follows
