A company has seven tasks to complete. They are:

T1 – Buy raw material

T2 – Take orders

T3 – Process raw material

T4 – Deliver finish product

T5 – Hire new recruits

T6 – Pay the bills

T7 – Pay salary

And to do these tasks it has only two days, Monday and Tuesday. Certain conditions should be followed:

The Company must do at least two tasks each day.

The company cannot start its task on Monday with T4 (deliver finish product)

Task T1 should be done either in the beginning or at the end of any of the two days. Task T3 and task T7 should be done on the same day with no task done in between them. Task T4 and task T6 cannot be done on same day.

At least one task should be done in between the task T2 and task T7.

Option 1 -

T1 is the first task on Monday

Option 2 -

    Correct Option - 4


    Detailed Solution:

    Since Task T1 does not have either the first or last Task on Tuesday Task T1 must have the first or last Task on Monday. So, option (a) or option (b) is true but neither one must be true.

    On Tuesday since Task T3 is first Task T7 must be second but Task T2 cannot follow Task T7. So Task T2 must have been done on Monday, hence (c) is eliminated. Since Task T4 has to be done on Tuesday Task T6 must have been done on Monday.

From the 1st statement: B2 is now as old as B3 was in the past. Hence B2 is younger to B3 or B2 < B3. Also sometime in the past B1 was twice as old as B4. So B1 is elder to B4 or B1 > B4. B3 will be as old as B5 in future, hence B3 < B5. The second statement suggests: B1 > B6. B1 was as old as B7 in the past. Hence B1 > B7. B4 will be as old as B6 in future. Hence B6 > B4. B6 will be as old as B7 now in future. Hence B7 > B6. B7 was as old as B2, when B1 was as old as B7. Hence B1 = B2. Combining both the results, we get: and B5 > B3 > B2 = B1 > B7 > B6 > B4 (Note by B1 = B2, it is meant that they are of similar age group, not necessarily the same).

B5 is the eldest brother.
