Study the information carefully and answer the question given below. Eight persons — A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H — attend a workshop in eight different months: January, February, March, April, May, June, July and August (not necessarily in the same order). Each person has a different profession: Doctor, Lawyer, Architect, Pilot, Teacher, Banker, Artist and Chef. A is a doctor and attends the workshop in a month having 31 days. Two persons attend between A and the lawyer. C attends before the architect. Three persons attend between D and H. Neither D nor H attends in February or June. The pilot attends immediately after the teacher. The banker attends before the chef but after B. E is an artist. F attends immediately before G. The architect attends after H. B does not attend in March or July. Who attends the workshop in May?
- B
- D
- H
- F
Correct answer: H
Solution
Using the month and profession constraints together, the arrangement forces H into May. The clues about D and H being three persons apart, the architect being after H, and A being in a 31-day month narrow the positions significantly. After satisfying all conditions, H is the one who attends in May.
