You have a table in which there are four cards. Each card has a number on one side and a color on the other. You are given the statement that every card which has an even number on one side is colored green on the back. The four cards are 13, 36, White, and Green. Which cards do you have to flip over to make sure the rule is true with minimal card flipping?
The 36 and White cards. The 36 you have to flip in order to make sure it is green on the back, and the white card to make sure it doesn't have an even number on the back. Flipping the 13 is useless because odd numbers are not involved in the rule, and flipping the green card is useless because the rule doesn't give any parameters for green cards, only for even cards.
