The rest day will not be the second or the fourth day.How many days’ gap will be there between the days on which topic E and B will be discussed?
Solution
To answer this question, we need to arrange the topics according to the given conditions.
-
Topics B and D will not be discussed on the first day. So, A or E or C can be discussed on the first day. But since A is discussed before E and C is discussed before the rest day, A is the only option for the first day.
-
There will be a gap of two days between the days on which topics D and B will be discussed. Since B is discussed before D, B cannot be on the second day. So, E is the only option for the second day.
-
Now, B can be discussed on the third day.
-
The rest day cannot be the second or the fourth day. So, the fourth day can be D.
-
Now, the only days left for C and the rest day are the fifth and sixth days. Since C is discussed immediately before the rest day, C will be on the fifth day and the rest day will be on the sixth day.
So, the final arrangement is: A-E-B-D-C-F
Therefore, the gap between the days on which topic E and B will be discussed is one day.
