Mexican 2 knows the colour of his hat because he can see the white hat in front of him and knows the guy behind him (1) can see it too. He knows that if he was wearing a white hat No1 would know for sure that his hat was black because of the two white hats he could see and he would have called out. Therefore No2 can be 100% sure that his hat is black, as the guy behind him has not called out.

Hope that makes sense.

Humbugsmum, IMO you are right if and only if there is a mistake in the question!

The question says: of the hat of the one in front of him. Which is much different from of the mexicans in front of them. So number 1 sees only no's 2 had and does not see no's 3 hat.
