I thought I'd just point out for the forum admins that this thread appears to be miscategorized-the link is for Logic Games-PT47 G4, but the thread regards a LR question.

This thread appears to be miscategorized-the link is for Logic Games-PT47 G4, but the thread regards a LR question. Could you pls state the answer for LG

Hi,

There still is not a correct solution listed for LG Q22. An explanation would be great!

Hey!

Sorry about that!

Since this is an unconditional question, we just have our master diagram and previous work to help us. Any answer that doesn't violate a rule/inference in the master, or that isn't confirmed by previous work, will have to be tested.

A) Violates rule 3
B) Don't see any issue. Defer or test. I personally chose to test because that seemed quicker, if it was right, than ruling out C, D, and E. But either call is totally fine.
C) Violates rule 1 because O needs to work with a Supervisor on Wed and K isn't a Supervisor.
D) Violates rule 5
E) Violates rule 1 just like C

If you went through every answer, B is right by process of elimination and you don't have to test it. If you didn't go through each answer working wrong to right, testing B could look like this:

S O O K ?
P P J N N


If S in on Mon, so is P, because of rule 4. We need to use K with somebody going for the first time, so you can put KN on Thurs and the other N Fri. That leaves Wed for J. The other Friday slot is undetermined. It could be S or O, or it could be another Supervisor.

Hope this helps!
