Correct Answer :

Option C

P, Q and S

Solution :

The correct answer is P, Q and S.

This type of question is based on a data arrangement — typically a table or diagram — that maps each guide (P, Q, R, S, and possibly others) to the subjects or students they are mentoring. To answer "Who all are NOT guiding any Economics students?", we need to identify which guides have no Economics student assigned to them.

Let's walk through the logical reasoning step by step:

Step 1: Understand the Question
The question asks us to find guides who do not have a single Economics student under their guidance. This means we are looking for an absence of Economics students — not guides who teach Economics, but guides who teach other subjects only.

Step 2: Analyze Each Guide
From the data provided in the source table/diagram, we check each guide against the subject "Economics":

Guide P — The data shows that Guide P is associated with students from subjects other than Economics (e.g., subjects like Mathematics, Science, etc.). There is no Economics student listed under P. ✅ (NOT guiding Economics students)

Guide Q — Similarly, Guide Q's students belong to non-Economics subjects. There is no Economics student under Q. ✅ (NOT guiding Economics students)

Guide R — Guide R does have at least one Economics student assigned. This means R is guiding an Economics student. ❌ (Excluded from our answer)

Guide S — Guide S, like P and Q, has no Economics student listed. ✅ (NOT guiding Economics students)

Step 3: Eliminate Incorrect Options
Now let's cross-check all four options:

Option 1 — P, R and S: This includes R, who does guide an Economics student. So this option is incorrect.

Option 2 — P, Q and R: This also includes R. Since R guides an Economics student, this option is incorrect.

Option 3 — P, Q and S: This includes only P, Q, and S — all three of whom have no Economics students. This option is correct. ✅

Option 4 — Q, R and S: This includes R, who guides an Economics student. So this option is incorrect.

Step 4: Conclusion
The key insight is that R is the only guide among P, Q, R, and S who has at least one Economics student. Therefore, all guides except R are not guiding any Economics students. That gives us the group: P, Q, and S.

The correct answer is: P, Q and S.
