Liars and Truthtellers.
There is a group of 50 natives on the island of Liars and Truthtellers. On this tiny island, there are three villages and all Liars and Truthtellers live in these villages. A poll taken of these 50 natives yielded these results:
23 said they live in village A.
17 said they live in village B.
14 said they live in village C.
Assuming Liars always lie and Truthtellers always tell the truth, and every native lives in only one village, how many truthtellers were in the group?
