Question 155

How many people have their interview before the one who likes Mathematics ?

Solution

Only four people have their interview between N and the one who likes Zoology. Neither N nor the one who likes Zoology has an interview on Sunday, => Let N has interview on Monday and the one who likes Zoology has interview on Saturday.

P has an interview immediately after the one who likes Zoology, => P has interview on Sunday.

Only two people have their interviews between P and J, => J has interview on Thursday.

The one who likes Psychology has an interview on one of the days before J but not on Wednesday and N does not like Psychology, => The one who likes Psychology has interview on Tuesday.

Only two people have their interviews between the one who likes Psychology and the one who likes Statistics, => The one who likes statistics has interview on Friday.

The one who likes Economics has an interview immediately before the one who likes Statistics, => The one who likes Economics has interview on Thursday.

The number of people having interview between P and the one who likes Economics = 2

Also, N does not like English, => P likes English.

Only one person has an interview between the one who likes English and K, => K has interview on Friday.

The one who likes Sociology has an interview immediately after O, => O has interview on Tuesday and the one who likes Sociology has interview on Wednesday.

Since, N who likes mathematics has interview on the first day i.e., Monday thus none of the person has interview before it.
