Four artists painted one painting each. 100 spectators should guess which painting belongs to which artist.
Noone got all wrong. 10 people matched one painting with the correct artist, 20 people matched two paintings with the correct artists. How many got 3 and 4 correct? Vidar |

70 got them all correct.
Unless some people put the same artist for different pictures. Wilburr. |

Nobody got three correct.
(Though you might think that this follows from Wilburr's answer, above, it doesn't. In fact, Wilburr reached this conclusion first, then reasoned from this answer to the one he posted. I know. I'm a physic.) |

After reading half way through the puzzle I thought it'd end up being a trick question such as:
20 people got one correct. 10 people got two correct. It's impossible from that information to say how many got four correct. How many got none correct? /Tomas |
