SOLUTION #1 - SQUARES FIRST, CARL DIVIDES HIS AS TO RESERVE TO HIMSELF ONE-FOURTH IN THE FORM OF A SQUARE. THEN, CARL TAKES THE REMAINING 3/4 SHAPE AND SCALES IT DOWN BY 1/4. HE THEN, MULTIPLIES THE SHAPE INTO 4 IDENTICALLY SHAPED PIECES, AND ARANGES THEM SO THAT THEY FIT INTO THE ORIGINAL 3/4 SHAPE. SOLUTION #2 - RECTANGLES FIRST, CREATE A TRIANGLE THAT IS 1/4 THE SIZE OF THE SQUARE. NOW, WITH STRAIGHT LINES, CREATE TWO SQUARES. PROCEED TO DISECT THE TWO SQUARES WITH HORIZONTAL LINES CREATING 4 TRIANGLES. THEN, DISECT ONE OF THE RESULTUING TRIANGLES FROM EACH SQUARE. THE SHAPE OF LAND FOR EACH OF HIS FOUR CHILDREN IS DIVIDED EVENLY AND IS THE SAME SHAPE THE CRIMINAL SHOULD OPEN DOOR NUMBER 2. IF THE 1ST STATEMENT IS TRUE, THEN THE 2ND STATEMENT WILL ALSO BE TRUE. SO WE CAN CONCLUDE THAT THE 2ND STATEMENT IS TRUE AND THE 1ST STATEMENT IS FALSE. FROM THE 2ND STATEMENT, WE KNOW THAT THERE IS A LADY IN ONE OF THE ROOMS AND A TIGER IS IN THE OTHER ROOM. THE LADY HAS TO BE BEHIND DOOR 2 AS THE FIRST STATEMENT IS NOT TRUE THE CORRECT COMBINATION IS 65292. SINCE THE THIRD DIGIT IS THREE LESS THAN THE SECOND, AND THE FOURTH IS FOUR GREATER THAN THE SECOND, THERE ARE ONLY THREE POSSIBLE COMBINATIONS FOR THE SECOND, THIRD AND FOURTH DIGITS. THESE ARE -307-, -418-, AND -529-. WITH THE FIRST DIGIT THREE TIMES THE FIFTH, THE ONLY POSSIBLE COMBINATIONS FOR THE FIRST AND FIFTH DIGITS ARE 0 0,3 1, 6 2, AND 9 3. THE SOLUTION ARISES FROM COMBINING THESE TWO SETS OF POSSIBILITIES, WITH THE ADDED CRITERIA THAT THERE ARE THREE COMBINATIONS OF TWO DIGITS THAT THAT EACH SUM TO 11 THE JAPANESE MAN OWNS THE ZEBRA.
