Prizes


Answer :
Serge = French,  
Marc = English,  
Jack = Math,
Lisette = History

Joshua P says
We just did your logic problem titled "Prizes" with Serge, Jack, Marc, and Lisette.
We have concluded that either your wording in the criteria or the answer listed is incorrect.
From what we have deduced, Jack won French, Serge won Math, Lisette won History, and Marc won English.

AI says
Let's analyze the given hints to determine who won which prize:
1. The highest result in all tests was obtained by Lisette.
   - Lisette has the highest score in all subjects.
2. Jack and Marc had the same percentage in French.
   - Jack and Marc both have the same score in French.
3. Jack obtained a higher score in math than Serge received in French.
   - Jack's math score > Serge's French score.
4. The winning results in French and math were the same.
   - The scores for the winners in French and math are the same.
5. Marc scored one point less in English than Lisette in history.
   - Marc's English score = Lisette's history score - 1.
6. Lisette failed English.
   - Lisette has a score of 0 in English.

Now let's use this information to determine who won each prize:
- Since Lisette has the highest score in all tests and failed English, she must have won the prize in a subject other than English.
This leaves her with either French, history, or math.

- Jack and Marc have the same score in French, and Jack's math score is higher than Serge's French score.
Since Lisette won the prize in math, Jack and Marc must have won the prizes in French and history, but we don't know which is which.

- Marc's English score is one point less than Lisette's history score. Since Lisette has 0 in English, Marc must have 0 - 1 = -1 in English, which is not possible.
Therefore, Marc did not win the prize in English.

Now let's summarize:
- Lisette won the math prize.
- Jack won the French prize.
- Marc won the history prize.

Since Serge is the only one left, he must have won the English prize.
So, the winners are:
- Lisette: Math
- Jack: French
- Marc: History
- Serge: English
