Question and options

Read the information carefully and answer the question:

Five roommates sharing a room in Delhi namely Rama, Sunny, Terry, Umakanth, and Vikram each do one housekeeping task – mopping, sweeping, laundry, vacuuming, or dusting – one day a week, Monday through Friday. Now
i. Vikram does not vacuum and does not do his task on Tuesday.
ii. Sunny does the dusting, and does not do it on Monday or Friday.
iii. The mopping is done on Thursday.
iv. Terry does his task, which is not vacuuming, on Wednesday.
v. The laundry is done on Friday, and not by Umakanth.
vi. Rama does his task on Monday.

What task does Vikram do?
  1. Vacuuming
  2. Dusting
  3. Laundry
  4. Sweeping

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: C - Laundry
Laundry is on Friday and not by Umakanth; the only people left for Thursday/Friday are Vikram and Umakanth (Vikram cannot be Tuesday). So Vikram does the laundry on Friday.
