Three different skin-colored men meet in the party. A white-skinned man is wearing a pair of white shoes, a black-skinned man is wearing a pair of black shoes, and a red-skinned man is wearing a pair of red shoes.
As a gesture of friendship, they exchanged shoes. When they are done, each of them has one shoe from each of the other two men.
How many shoes will you have to look at, to know which color shoe each man is wearing on his right foot and which color shoe each man is wearing on his left foot?
Note that when you look at a shoe, you can see that man’s skin color.
