Why this answer is correct
Here, persons are K, L, M, N, O, P and Q.
-
Three persons give interview between M and O who is scheduled for interview after M.
-
Q gives interview two days before P.
-
Q gives interview before M.
| Days | Case – 1 | Case – 2 |
|---|---|---|
| Persons | Persons | |
| Monday | Q | |
| Tuesday | M | Q |
| Wednesday | P | M |
| Thursday | P | |
| Friday | ||
| Saturday | O | |
| Sunday | O |
-
L and N give interview on adjacent days.
-
Not more than one person gives interview between N and K. Therefore, case 2 is eliminated. Hence, the final arrangement is as follows
| Days | Persons |
|---|---|
| Monday | Q |
| Tuesday | M |
| Wednesday | P |
| Thursday | L |
| Friday | N |
| Saturday | O |
| Sunday | K |
Hence, two persons give interview between P and O.
