| Solutions – From clue (v): Lecture E is delivered on Wednesday. And the lecture F was not delivered on Thursday. Again, from clue (iv): Tuesday and Saturday were not holiday. From direction part it is obvious that neither Monday nor Sunday was holiday. So, by elimination holiday was either on Thursday or on Friday. Now, from clues (iii) and (iv) we get the following orders of lectures of B and F X. B * Holiday F Y. Holiday F * * B Reject the possibility ‘Y’ because according to it there must be at least four lectures after holiday. This is not possible even when the holiday is on Thursday. Now, use the possibility ‘X’. If holiday is on Friday, two lectures (B & E) need to be arranged on Wednesday, which is not possible. Therefore, the holiday must be on Thursday. And the lectures B and F delivered on Tuesday and Friday respectively. Now, from clue (ii): A can’t be delivered either on Monday or on Saturday. Obviously, the lecture A was delivered on Sunday. This implies that the lecture D was delivered on Saturday. By elimination, the lecture C was delivered on Monday. Thus, the whole information can be tabulated as below:
