A, B, C, D and E belong to five different cities P, Q, R, S and T (not necessarily in that order). Each one of them comes from a different city. Further it is given that:
- 1. B and C do not belong to Q
- 2. B and E do not belong to P and R
- 3. A and C do not belong to R, S and T
- 4. D and E do not belong to Q and T
Which one of the following statements is not correct?
- B belongs to S
- C belongs to P
- D belongs to R
- A belongs to Q
Answer
From statements 1 and 3, C does not belong to Q, R, S and T. So, only one possibility is left - C belongs to P.
From statement 3, A does not belong to R, S and T. So, A belongs to Q.
From statements 2 and 4, E does not belong to P, R, Q and T. So, E belongs to S. B can not belong to S.
A - Q; B - T; C - P; D - R; E - S
The correct option is A.
