Maths Brain Teasers 126 :: Can You Solve 3 Digit Lock Puzzle? - Solved with Explanation

Let's have a look at the Step by Step instructions to Solve the Maths Brain Teasers 126 :: Can You Solve 3 Digit Lock Puzzle?

If you carefully look at the Image in question; You would have noticed the following pattern is being followed::

Ideally no pattern but rather we need to focus on the statement given/provided & eliminate numbers

Let's have a look at the first example::

With this, we know the number position will be as follows:: 1-?-? or ?-?-2

Since, Number 4 cant be according to line three

Lets look at line 2::

The new possibilities with this becomes:: 1-0-9 or 3-0-2

let's take a look at line 4

This eliminates the previous possibility; 1 0 9

Finally, the answer to the puzzle and the number to crack the code is:: 3 0 2

At the same time will like to echo @serhotest detailed explanation::

My method: On line one ( 1-4-2) we have one number well placed, as the 4 is wrong according to line three we have 2 posibilities:
1-?-? or ?-?-2
According to line two, two numbers are correct and well placed (3-0-9)
The 0 is correct and well placed because it doesn't interact with previous possibilities, so the new posibilities are:
1-0-9 or 3-0-2
On line four one number is correct but wrongly placed (1-3-9)
So for our previous possibilities it can't be the first (1-0-9) because we would have two numbers correctly placed.
Then only one possibility remains and we have the code:
3-0-2
