Question 12
On an island, every native is either a Valak, who always tells the truth, or a Laka, who always lies. A visiting couple hires a native helper. They see another native, and the husband asks the helper to find out which group that native belongs to. The helper returns and reports, “He said that he is a Laka.” The wife concludes that the helper is dishonest and dismisses him. Is her conclusion correct? Explain why.
