Question and options

Find the statement that must be true according to the given information.
Georgia is older than her cousin Marsha. Marsha's brother Bart is older than Georgia. When Marsha and Bart are visiting with Georgia, all three like to play a game of Monopoly. Marsha wins more often than Georgia does
  1. When he plays Monopoly with Marsha and Georgia, Bart always wins
  2. Of the three, Georgia is the oldest
  3. Georgia hates to lose at Monopoly
  4. Of the three, Marsha is the youngest

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: D - Of the three, Marsha is the youngest
Georgia is older than Marsha, and Bart is older than Georgia, so Bart > Georgia > Marsha. Marsha is the youngest. Bart is the oldest (so 'Georgia is the oldest' is false), and nothing supports the claims that Bart always wins or that Georgia hates to lose.
