How many of the statements in this box are true?
One of these statements is true.
It can not be ‘none of these statements’ because then that would be true making it one of the statements.
It can not be ‘all of these statements’ as ‘none of these statements’ would then not be true.
It cant be ‘two of these statements’ because we don’t have another statement along with ‘two of these statements’ that would then be true.
That leaves us with one statement, ‘ one of these statements is true’ which it is.
