Question

The details given below relate to the FOUR items that follow: Amit wishes to buy a magazine. Four magazines—one each on politics, sports, science and films are available to choose from. They are edited by Feroz, Gurbaksh, Swami and Ila (not necessarily in that order) and published by Aryan, Bharat, Charan and Dev Publishers (not necessarily in that order). Further, it is given that i) Dev Publishers have published the magazine edited by Feroz. ii) The magazine on politics is published by Aryan Publishers.iii) The magazine on films is edited by Swami and is not published by Charan Publishers. iv) The magazine on science is edited by Ila. For the following four items, select the correct answer: The magazine on sports is:

Accepted Answer

To solve this, we can organize the information step by step:

1. From statement iv, Science is edited by Ila.
2. From statement iii, Films is edited by Swami.
3. From statement ii, Politics is published by Aryan.
4. From statement i, Feroz edits the magazine published by Dev.

Now we can determine the editor for the remaining subjects. Since Ila, Swami, and Feroz are accounted for, Gurbaksh must be the editor of the Politics magazine because Politics is published by Aryan, while Feroz is linked to Dev.

This leaves the Sports magazine for Feroz.

To confirm the publishers:
Films is edited by Swami. Since it cannot be published by Charan (statement iii), Aryan (Politics), or Dev (Feroz), it must be published by Bharat.
This leaves Charan as the publisher for Science (Ila).

Summary of the Sports magazine:
Subject: Sports
Editor: Feroz (matches statement i)
Publisher: Dev

Therefore, Option A is correct because the magazine on sports is edited by Feroz.
