What color is the vice president’s car?
- Green
- Yellow
- Blue
- Purple
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A - Green
Space 1 is red and space 5 purple (David). Blue lies between red and green, so blue is 2 and green 3 (Enid); yellow is 4 (the secretary). Alice is next to David, so Alice is 4. Bert is between Cheryl and Enid, so Bert is 2 and Cheryl 1. The VP (space 3) drives green.
