Hi Team

How do you approach this orientation question, in this question, when you have the two either / or and not both rules? I have eliminated B and E based on the diagram, but based on my understanding of the Frames A , C and D all work - what am I missing here?

Thanks so much!

Same problem for me! I can't find a way to solve this question.

Here are the answer choices:

J P M G V L - PG are both before V, violates rule 3
P J L M G V - violates rule 1
P M J L G V - JL are both before G, violates rule 2
P M V G L J - LJ are both after G, violates rule 2
V L J P M G - violates rule 1

C is supposed to be the correct answer, but I can't see it.

Please help.

Thanks!

Hi,

Answer choice (c) doesn't actually violate rule 2.

Rule 2 is telling us that G is either before both J,L or after both J,L - it can never be sandwiched in-between .

It's easier to see this through the diagrams-

J
/
G
\
L

and

J
\
G
/
L


Answer choice (c) also satisfies rule 1( P-M-L) and rule 3 which is basically saying that v has to be on one side or the other of both G,P.

Additionally, if you were to end up creating the 4 frames (which I don't suggest), you can see that P M J L G V is one of the possible sequences for the "G before, V after" frame.

I'm not sure if I made any sense but I figured I would shoot my shot.

I actually support framing this game! Generally I don't like to do more than three frames, but when you've got two either/or rules in a relative ordering game, I think it's pretty quick to bang out all 4 frames based on the 4 ways the two rules can intersect.

Pick one of the two either/or rules to start with, and draw it out four times: twice one way, and twice the other way. Then build in your other rule in the same way to create all 4 possibilities.
