"Listen to me; I'm telling the truth!"


What others making statements?

Since, each of 4 servants telling different numbers then only 1 of them must be telling the truth & other must be lying.

In that case, all 3 must be having 7 legs i.e. 21 legs while the one who is making true statement must have either 6 or 8 legs. Therefore, there must be 21 + 6 = 27 or 21 + 8 = 29 legs altogether.

"Listen to me; I'm telling the truth!"

Nobody is saying that they altogether have 29 legs but the green octopus is saying that they altogether have 27 legs. Hence, the green octopus must be telling the truth.
