  1. Your assuming they got the first 3 right, what if they got the first wrong and the last 3 right Then there isn’t a fourth to automatically get right !

    • Think about it…
      There are 4 possibilities, so either you get all 4 correct or 2 correct and 2 incorrect or etc. So the order is not relevant in this case.
      But under any circumstances, if 3 are correct the 4th automatically will be correct.
      I hope you get it, if not let me know
