An organization decides to distribute seven types of laptops on week days starting from Monday to Sunday. The seven laptops to be distributed are of Sony, Acer, Asus, Dell, HP, Lenovo and HCL but not necessarily in the same order. Dell laptops are to be given on Saturday. Lenovo laptops are given just after Asus laptops and Asus laptops are not given on Wednesday. HP laptops are given three days after the distribution of Asus laptops. Acer laptops are distributed just after Sony laptop. HCL laptops are distributed before Acer laptops. HP laptops are distributed after Dell laptops.
If HCL is related with Tuesday, Sony is related with Wednesday, similarly Lenovo is related with which day?
Solution
Given: Dell laptops are to be given on Saturday. HP laptops are distributed after Dell laptops.
So, HP laptops are distributed on Sunday.
HP laptops are given three days after the distribution of Asus laptops (given). So, Asus laptops are given on Thursdays.
Lenovo laptops are given just after Asus laptops (given). So, Lenovo laptops are distributed on Friday.
Acer laptops are distributed just after Sony laptop. HCL laptops are distributed before Acer laptops. So, HCL laptops are distributed before Sony and Sony is distributed before Acer.
Since we have only Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays to fill these three laptops, we will get the arrangement of days and laptops as follows:
