As Ead said, there is zero mathematics involved, except figuring out what percentage of a chance you have to solve it if you guess at random.
It could still be worded better, though.
I spent a couple of minutes trying to figure out why the number pairs were significant until I realised that I couldn't be sure of any ensuing conclusions because of the obvious Engrish translation.
That and I was hungover and still sore from spending five hours working on a roof the previous day, and I don't care for this kind of
when I'm not being paid for it.Statistics: Posted by Eadwulf — August 6th, 2015, 10:34 pm

Answer:
I found it to be a pretty fun problem. Not related to mathematics in any way, but I've always loved deductive reasoning puzzles. Thanks for sharing!

Month: If it were August, we'd both be confused because there are two options left. But July only has July 16 left.
Or something like that.
It would help if they detailed a little bit that they were actually logically deducing things with each other instead of just spouting what looks like nonsense.
