hmmm i guess im jsut a big loser, because i really enjoy figuring out these problems. haha.... k so dove, its not necessarily 4 because #1's hat could be white or black, and tanner, good one.
k, heres the answer: #3 wanna know why? because if number 2 and 3's hats were white, then number 4 could say that his hat was black, or if they were both black, he could say his was white, right? but he didnt know the answer, which means that #3 knew the hats were 2 different colors, and he knew that #2's hat was white, so he knew his hat was black. yay!!!
(#3 had to be pretty smart to know to wait a minute before being certain...)
