Question

Five friends A, B, C, D and E work as a doctor, lawyer, Businessman, Engineer and Cook and live in Delhi, Mumbai, Goa, Panji and Punjab (not necessarily in the same order). The profession of no two friends is same and no two friends live at the same place. A works as a Cook but does not live in Goa and Panji. B and D live in Delhi and Mumbai respectively. C works as a lawyer. Doctor lives in Goa.
Which of the following combination is definitely TRUE?

This question was previously asked in
RRB NTPC 2019 CBT 1 Question Paper (8-Mar-2021) (Shift 2)
The correct answer is
C - Panji - lawyer

To determine the correct combination of professions and residences for the friends, we can break down the information given and use a process of elimination.

  1. We know that A works as a Cook but does not live in Goa and Panji.
  2. B lives in Delhi, and D lives in Mumbai.
  3. C works as a lawyer.
  4. The Doctor lives in Goa.

Let's evaluate the options and deduce which combination is definitely true.

  1. B - Delhi - Businessman
    • B lives in Delhi, but there is no information regarding B's profession as a Businessman. So, this cannot be determined as definitely true.
  2. D - Mumbai - Engineer
    • D lives in Mumbai, but there is no confirmation that D is an Engineer. The profession is not specified, so this is not definitely true.
  3. A - Panji - Cook
    • It is stated that A cannot live in Panji, hence this combination is false.
  4. C - Panji - Lawyer
    • C works as a lawyer. Since the Doctor lives in Goa and A cannot live in Panji, C can live in Panji.
    • This combination has no contradictions and aligns perfectly with the given information.

Therefore, the combination that is definitely true is C - Panji - Lawyer.
