As per my understanding of the problem L has money and N does not have money. Kindly let me know the answer.

Hi Madhusmita,

I think N having mony with him........

I have to leave now.

Thx.

I think all have money or non of them

I think L has money and all others dont have......

Plz let me know m right or not?

I think L has money and others don't have.....
plz post the rite answer.

Since all are liars, we cannot trust any data that is of the form P says M said that....

So, the only true self standing statement is: L:says all of my other 4 friends have money.

Since L is a liar, then the above statement can be a lie in two ways:
+ Not all 4 have money: so anywhere from 1-3 of L's friends can have money
+ L does not have 4 friends

The one unsaid fact is whether L has money or not.
So, the only thing we can say is that at least 3 people out of MNOP have money and L may/may not have money.

All have money

as all are liars L and N cannot have money
and according to above facts 3 has money so M,O,P has money
