Five men Ankur, Bharat, Chetan, Dev, Insan and their wives Parveen, Qazi, Reshma, Sudha and Tanu join a dance party, but it is not necessary that the order of husbands and wives are the same. This is the information that-
I. Husbands dance only with their wives
II. Chetan has a sister Tanu and has only a brother Ankur
III. If Dev has dance with Tanu, that means he danced with another’s wife
IV. Bharat does not dance with Qazi or Tanu or Sudha
V. Parveen is wife of Ankur’s brother
VI. Qazi did not dance with Dev
If Insan is Dev’s son, how is Bharat related to Qazi?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) → Cannot determine
Bharat’s relation to Qazi depends on who Qazi’s husband is and how Bharat is related to him.
The couples from conditions I to VI are Ankur – Qazi, Bharat – Reshma, Chetan – Parveen, Dev – Sudha and Insan – Tanu, so Qazi is Ankur’s wife.
Ankur’s only brother is Chetan (II), so Bharat is not Ankur’s brother.
The added fact, Insan is Dev’s son, links Dev and Insan only; it says nothing about Bharat.
Nothing given connects Bharat with Ankur or Qazi, so the relation cannot be determined.
