Study the given information carefully and answer the questions given below.
Seven students—A, B, C, D, E, F, and G—give presentations on seven different subjects: History, Math, Science, Art, Music, Geography, and Civics, from Monday to Sunday. A presents History on Monday. Three presentations are scheduled between A and E, who presents Music. The number of students presenting before B is the same as the number of students presenting after F, who presents Geography on Saturday. Four students present between B and the one who presents Civics. C presents immediately after the one who presents Math, and immediately before D, who presents Art.
Which subject is presented immediately after the Science presentation?
Correct Answer :
Art
Solution :
The correct option is Art.
Let's deduce the presentation schedule step-by-step from Monday to Sunday:
1. A presents History on Monday.
- Monday: A (History)
2. Three presentations are scheduled between A and E, who presents Music.
Since A is on Monday (Day 1), E presents 3 days after A's presentation plus 1, which means E presents on Friday (Day 5).
- Friday: E (Music)
3. F presents Geography on Saturday.
- Saturday: F (Geography)
4. The number of students presenting before B is the same as the number of students presenting after F.
Since F presents on Saturday (6th day), exactly 1 student presents after F (on Sunday). Therefore, exactly 1 student presents before B, which means B presents on Tuesday (2nd day).
- Tuesday: B
5. Four students present between B and the one who presents Civics.
B is on Tuesday (Day 2), so counting four days after Tuesday (Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday), the student presenting Civics must present on Sunday (Day 7).
- Sunday: Civics
6. C presents immediately after the one who presents Math, and immediately before D, who presents Art.
This means the sequence (Math -> C -> D with Art) must occupy three consecutive available days.
The available days left for students/subjects are Wednesday (Day 3), Thursday (Day 4), and Sunday (Day 7).
Thus, the three consecutive days must be Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday.
Wait, E is on Friday presenting Music. So the three consecutive slots for students C and D must be:
- Wednesday: Math
- Thursday: C
- Friday: D (Art) -- but E is already on Friday! Let's re-check the student sequence: C is immediately after Math, and C is immediately before D (who presents Art). So Math -> C -> D (Art).
The open student slots are Wednesday, Thursday, and Sunday.
So, Wednesday must be Math, Thursday is C, and D is on Friday? No, Thursday must be Math, Friday is C? But E is on Friday. Let's look at the remaining days:
Wednesday (Day 3), Thursday (Day 4), Sunday (Day 7).
If Wednesday is Math, then Thursday is C, and D presents on Friday? But Friday is E! Ah, C is immediately after the one who presents Math. This means the person presenting Math is on Wednesday, so C is on Thursday. Then C is immediately before D, so D is on Friday? No, D presents Art, so D can be on Sunday if D is after C... wait, "immediately before D" means D is right after C. Let's check the schedule available:
Let's list the days from Monday to Sunday:
- Monday: A (History)
- Tuesday: B
- Wednesday: Math (presented by B? Yes, B is on Tuesday, so Wednesday is immediately after B if B presents Math!).
Let's verify: If B on Tuesday presents Math, then C presents immediately after Math, so C presents on Wednesday.
Then C presents immediately before D, so D presents on Thursday.
D presents Art, so Thursday is D (Art).
This fits perfectly!
- Tuesday: B (Math)
- Wednesday: C
- Thursday: D (Art)
- Friday: E (Music)
- Saturday: F (Geography)
- Sunday: Civics (Remaining student is G)
7. Remaining Subject:
The subjects assigned so far are: History (Monday), Math (Tuesday), Art (Thursday), Music (Friday), Geography (Saturday), Civics (Sunday).
The only remaining subject is Science, which must be on Wednesday (C's subject).
Complete Schedule:
- Monday: A - History
- Tuesday: B - Math
- Wednesday: C - Science
- Thursday: D - Art
- Friday: E - Music
- Saturday: F - Geography
- Sunday: G - Civics
The question asks: Which subject is presented immediately after the Science presentation?
Science is presented on Wednesday, so the subject presented immediately after it (on Thursday) is Art.
