Vinay remembers that his brother Anupam’s birthday is after 20th August but before 28th of August, while Rita remembers that Anupam’s birthday is before 22nd of August but after 12th of August. On which date does Anupam’s birthday fall?
  1. 20th August
  2. 21st August
  3. 22nd August
  4. 23rd August

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: B - 21st August
Vinay's memory allows 21 to 27 August, and Rita's allows 13 to 21 August. The only date in both ranges is 21 August; 20 August fails Vinay's condition, and 22 and 23 August fail Rita's.
