Eight persons B, C, D, E, F, G, M and N plan to go to the market, but not necessarily in the same order, either on 1 or 24 in four different months of a non-leap year, viz. January, February, March and April. G goes on an even date in the month which has an even number of days. Two persons go between G and E. F goes just before M. There are as many persons after E as before M. B goes just before D, but both go in different months. At most one person goes between G and N. C goes before N. Which two people go to the market in January?

1. B and D
2. C and F
3. G and N
4. E and B

Correct answer: G and N

Solution

The clues about G’s date and month, the gap between G and E, and the order relations among F, M, B, D, C, and N uniquely determine the schedule. The January slots are occupied by G and N.
