2. A, B and E are in Indore and Gwalior

3. B, C and D are in Raipur and Bhopal.

4. A, E and D are in Gwalior and Jabalpur

5. C,E and D are in Raipur and Jabalpur

Branch of which bank is in all places except Gwalior?

The correct answer is

C

The question asks us to identify the bank whose branch is present in all the specified locations except Gwalior. We are given information about the presence of five banks (A, B, C, D, E) in five cities (Indore, Bhopal, Gwalior, Raipur, Jabalpur).

Let's break down the information provided for the bank branches:

  • Statement 1: Banks A, B, and C are in Indore and Bhopal.
  • Statement 2: Banks A, B, and E are in Indore and Gwalior.
  • Statement 3: Banks B, C, and D are in Raipur and Bhopal.
  • Statement 4: Banks A, E, and D are in Gwalior and Jabalpur.
  • Statement 5: Banks C, E, and D are in Raipur and Jabalpur.

Now, let's compile a list of which banks are present in which city based on these statements:

  • Indore: From statement 1 (A, B, C) and statement 2 (A, B, E). Combining these, banks in Indore are A, B, C, E.
  • Bhopal: From statement 1 (A, B, C) and statement 3 (B, C, D). Combining these, banks in Bhopal are A, B, C, D.
  • Gwalior: From statement 2 (A, B, E) and statement 4 (A, E, D). Combining these, banks in Gwalior are A, B, D, E.
  • Raipur: From statement 3 (B, C, D) and statement 5 (C, E, D). Combining these, banks in Raipur are B, C, D, E.
  • Jabalpur: From statement 4 (A, E, D) and statement 5 (C, E, D). Combining these, banks in Jabalpur are A, C, D, E.

We can summarize the presence of each bank in each city using a table:

Bank Indore Bhopal Gwalior Raipur Jabalpur
A ✔ ✔ ✔ ✘ ✔
B ✔ ✔ ✔ ✔ ✘
C ✔ ✔ ✘ ✔ ✔
D ✘ ✔ ✔ ✔ ✔
E ✔ ✘ ✔ ✔ ✔

We are looking for a bank that is in all places (Indore, Bhopal, Raipur, Jabalpur) except Gwalior. Let's check each bank:

  • Bank A: Present in Indore, Bhopal, Gwalior, Jabalpur. (Present in Gwalior, so not the answer).
  • Bank B: Present in Indore, Bhopal, Gwalior, Raipur. (Present in Gwalior, so not the answer).
  • Bank C: Present in Indore, Bhopal, Raipur, Jabalpur. (Not present in Gwalior. This fits the condition).
  • Bank D: Present in Bhopal, Gwalior, Raipur, Jabalpur. (Present in Gwalior, so not the answer).
  • Bank E: Present in Indore, Gwalior, Raipur, Jabalpur. (Present in Gwalior, so not the answer).

Based on the analysis, Bank C is the only bank that has branches in Indore, Bhopal, Raipur, and Jabalpur, but does not have a branch in Gwalior.
