Direction: Read the following information carefully and answer the questions that follow.
Seven people P, Q, R, S, T, U and V. All of them have their birthdays in different months namely January, March, April, May, June, July and August. No two persons share the same birthday month. P's birthday is in January. There are the same number of person having their birthday before and after R. Only one person's birthday is there between S and R. Q's birthday is in the month having 31 days but not in August. There are two person's birthday between Q and V. T's birthday is before U's birthday. Q's birthday is not before R.
In which month does S have his birthday?
March
April
May
June
July
Let's break down the clues step by step:
- P's birthday is in January.
- R has an equal number of birthdays before and after, so R must be in the April slot (the 4th month out of 7).
- Only one birthday between S and R. So S can be either in February or June – but neither is an option. We'll keep this in mind as we fill more.
- Q's birthday is in a month with 31 days but not August: So Q could be in January, March, May, or July.
- January is P, so Q: March, May, or July.
- Two people between Q and V.
- T before U.
- Q is not before R. This means Q is in April, May, June, July, or August (not March nor January).
Now, build the table:
Month | Person
---|---
Jan | P
Mar | (possible Q, S, T, U, or V)
Apr | R
May | (possible Q, S, T, U, V)
Jun | (possible S, T, U, V)
Jul | (possible Q, S, T, U, V)
Aug | (possible Q, S, T, U, V)
Given R in April, the three before and after R; arrangement:
- Jan: P
- Mar: ?
- Apr: R
- May: ?
- Jun: ?
- Jul: ?
- Aug: ?
Since only one birthday is between S and R, S can be in either May or February. February not in list, so S is in May or June.
Now, Q must be in May or July (not August, not before R, not March). Let's try Q in May.
- May: Q
Two between Q and V: If Q is in May, V can be in Aug (May?Jun?Jul?Aug = two in between).
Now for the rest: S must be one slot apart from R, so S is either in March or May (but May is Q). So S must be in June.
That gives:
- Jun: S
- Aug: V
Left: T and U. T before U. Left slots: Mar and Jul. T in Mar, U in Jul.
So final:
- Mar: T
- Jul: U
So, S's birthday is in June!
- Option 4: June
## Short summary explanation:
- P is January, R must be April (center).
- One person between S and R ? S is in June.
- Q is in a 31 day month not August and after R, which makes Q in May, putting V in August.
- T and U fill in the remaining months (March and July, with T before U).
- Hence, S is June (Option 4).
