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 politics is:

Accepted Answer

To find the correct answer, we can systematically link the subjects, editors, and publishers based on the four given clues.

Step 1: From clue ii, Politics is published by Aryan Publishers. This immediately eliminates options C and D.

Step 2: From clue iv, Science is edited by Ila. This eliminates option A for the Politics magazine.

Step 3: From clue iii, Films is edited by Swami and is not published by Charan. Since Politics is Aryan and Films is not Charan, the Science magazine edited by Ila must be published by Charan.

Step 4: From clue i, Feroz edits a magazine published by Dev Publishers. Since Aryan, Charan, and Dev are now accounted for, Feroz must edit the remaining subject, which is Sports.

Step 5: We now have three editors assigned: Ila (Science), Swami (Films), and Feroz (Sports). The only editor left is Gurbaksh, and the only subject left is Politics.

Therefore, the magazine on politics is edited by Gurbaksh. Option B is correct.
