Scheduling Question 8 Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFStep 1: E travelled in the month immediately before B, who travelled in the month of October.
B | October |
E | September |
Here we place B with October as given and then place E before B with September.
Step 2: C travelled between the trips of E and F.
B | October |
E | September |
C | August |
F | July |
Now according to the condition we place C between E and F which means C travelled before E in August & F travelled before C in July.
Step 3: Exactly four people travelled after D’s trip.
B | October |
E | September |
C | August |
F | July |
D | June |
Here we place D at fifth position because four people travelled after him which means D travelled in June.
Step 4: G travelled in the month immediately before A’s trip.
B | October |
E | September |
C | August |
F | July |
D | June |
A | May |
G | April |
Lastly we have to place A and G where G travelled before A so we place A with May and G with April.
From the arrangement, we can see that F travelled in July.
