Answers :
Directions (1-5) :
We have:
- Two persons were born between S and T, who was born on Saturday.
- One person was born between S and P.
That means, in case (1) P was born on Friday, in case (2) P was born on Monday.
- R was born on any day after P but not born on Tuesday.
- Two persons were born between R and V, who was not born on Sunday.
That means, in case (1) & case (2a) R was born on Sunday, in case (2b) R was born on Friday.
Based on the above given information we have:
Again, we have:
- U was born on any day before V but not born on Tuesday.
That means, in case (1) U was born on Monday, case (2a) & case (2b) are not valid.
Based on the above given information we have the final arrangement as follows:
Case (2a) & case (2b) are not valid as U was born on any day before V but not born on Tuesday.
