Read the given information carefully and answer the questions based on it:
Six persons visit a place on two dates 11 and 22 in three different months i.e., September, October and November. They all like different colors viz. white, blue, pink, green, red and yellow but not necessarily in the same order as given.
The one who likes yellow visits three persons after L. L and S visit on same date and in the month of even numbered days. Two persons visit between S and R who likes green. Number of persons visit before R is same as the number of persons visit after V. The one who likes white visit just before H. No one visit between K and the one who likes blue. The one who likes red visits before the one who likes pink.
Who among the following visit on 22 October?
Correct Answer :
V
Solution :
To find who visits on 22 October, let us list the six dates in chronological order:
Now, let us analyze the given clues step-by-step:
Let us evaluate the possible cases for L and S:
Case 1: L visits on 11 September and S visits on 11 November.
If L visits on 11 September (position 1), then the person who likes yellow visits at position (22 October).
Since S is on 11 November (position 5), R (who likes green) must be at position (22 September) to have two persons between them.
If R is at position 2, there is 1 person visiting before R. According to Clue 4, there must be 1 person visiting after V, which means V must be at position 5 (11 November). However, S is already at position 5. Thus, Case 1 is invalid.
Case 2: L visits on 22 September and S visits on 22 November.
If L visits on 22 September (position 2), then the person who likes yellow visits at position (11 November).
Since S is on 22 November (position 6), R (who likes green) must be at position (11 October) to have two persons between them.
If R is at position 3, there are 2 persons visiting before R (at positions 1 and 2). According to Clue 4, there must be 2 persons visiting after V, which places V at position 4 (22 October).
This is a valid arrangement.
Let us fill in the rest of the details to verify consistency:
The complete and consistent arrangement is as follows:
| Date | Person | Color |
|---|---|---|
| 11 September | K | Red |
| 22 September | L | Blue |
| 11 October | R | Green |
| 22 October | V | White |
| 11 November | H | Yellow |
| 22 November | S | Pink |
From the table, we can clearly see that V visits on 22 October.
