This is a logic puzzle where you need to deduce a 4-digit code based on clues

Clue 1 (9 2 8 5): one number is correct but wrongly placed.

Clue 2 (1 9 3 7): Two numbers are correct but wrongly placed.

Clue 3 (5 2 0 1): One number is right and well placed.

Clue 4 (6 5 0 7): nothing is correct.

Clue 5 (8 5 2 4): Two numbers are correct but wrongly placed.

Can you crack the code?

Okay, let's work through this step-by-step:

Clue 1: (9 2 8 5)

  • One number is correct but wrongly placed. This means one of the digits in the 4-digit code is 9, 2, 8, or 5, but it is not in the correct position.

Clue 2: (1 9 3 7)

  • Two numbers are correct but wrongly placed. This means two of the digits in the 4-digit code are 1, 9, 3, or 7, but they are not in the correct positions.

Clue 3: (5 2 0 1)

  • One number is right and well placed. This means one of the digits in the 4-digit code is 5, and it is in the correct position.

Clue 4: (6 5 0 7)

  • Nothing is correct. This means none of the digits 6, 5, 0, or 7 are in the 4-digit code.

Clue 5: (8 5 2 4)

  • Two numbers are correct but wrongly placed. This means two of the digits in the 4-digit code are 8 and 4, but they are not in the correct positions.

Putting this all together:

  • The 4-digit code contains the digits 5, 9, and 4.
  • The 5 is in the correct position.
  • The 9 and 4 are not in the correct positions.

Therefore, the 4-digit code is 5942.
