Who among the following has to attend the meeting on Saturday?
G
This problem requires us to determine the meeting schedule for 7 people (A, B, C, D, E, F, G) across 7 days of the week (Monday to Sunday), based on a set of given clues. We need to identify who attends the meeting on Saturday.
Scheduling the Meeting Days
Let's list the days of the week, starting from Monday as instructed:
- Monday
- Tuesday
- Wednesday
- Thursday
- Friday
- Saturday
- Sunday
Applying the Clues Step-by-Step
- Clue 1: B attends a meeting on Thursday.
We can place B on Thursday.
- Monday:
- Tuesday:
- Wednesday:
- Thursday: B
- Friday:
- Saturday:
- Sunday:
- Clue 2: Only one person attends the meeting between B and G.
Since B is on Thursday, G can either be on Tuesday (with one person on Wednesday between them) or on Saturday (with one person on Friday between them).
- Possibility 1: G on Tuesday.
- Possibility 2: G on Saturday.
- Clue 3: A attends the meeting immediately after G.
- If G is on Tuesday (Possibility 1), A must be on Wednesday.
- If G is on Saturday (Possibility 2), A must be on Sunday.
- Clue 4: The number of people who attend a meeting before A is the same as the number of people who attend the meeting after C.
- In Possibility 1 (A on Wednesday): There are 2 people before A (Monday, Tuesday). This means there must be 2 people after C. If C were on Monday, there would be 6 people after C. If C were on Friday, there would be 2 people after C. If C were on Saturday, there would be 1 person after C. If C were on Sunday, there would be 0 people after C. This clue implies C must be on Friday for 2 people (Saturday, Sunday) to be after C. However, let's re-examine. People before A (on Wed) = 2 (Mon, Tue). So, people after C = 2. This means C must be placed such that only 2 days follow it. This puts C on Thursday. BUT B is already on Thursday. So, A cannot be on Wednesday. Possibility 1 is invalid.
- Let's re-check the logic for Possibility 1. A on Wed. People before A = 2 (Mon, Tue). So, people after C = 2. Days available: Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri, Sat, Sun. If A is on Wed, the schedule is: ?, G (Tue), A (Wed), B (Thu), ?, ?, ?. C must be placed such that 2 days are after it. This means C must be on Thursday. But B is on Thursday. Thus Possibility 1 is definitively ruled out.
- In Possibility 2 (A on Sunday): There are 6 people before A (Monday to Saturday). This means there must be 6 people after C. This is only possible if C is on Monday.
So, Possibility 2 seems correct. The schedule structure is now:
- Monday: C
- Tuesday:
- Wednesday:
- Thursday: B
- Friday:
- Saturday: G
- Sunday: A
- Clue 5: Only one person attends a meeting between C and D.
C is on Monday. D must be on Wednesday to have exactly one person (Tuesday) between them.
- Monday: C
- Tuesday:
- Wednesday: D
- Thursday: B
- Friday:
- Saturday: G
- Sunday: A
- Clue 6: F attends the meeting after D.
D is on Wednesday. F must attend on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday. Looking at the current schedule, Saturday is taken by G and Sunday by A. Therefore, F must attend on Friday.
- Monday: C
- Tuesday:
- Wednesday: D
- Thursday: B
- Friday: F
- Saturday: G
- Sunday: A
- Filling the Remaining Slot:
The only person left is E, and the only day left is Tuesday.
- Monday: C
- Tuesday: E
- Wednesday: D
- Thursday: B
- Friday: F
- Saturday: G
- Sunday: A
Final Meeting Schedule
The complete schedule is determined as follows:
| Day | Person |
| Monday | C |
| Tuesday | E |
| Wednesday | D |
| Thursday | B |
| Friday | F |
| Saturday | G |
| Sunday | A |
Determining the Saturday Attendee
Based on the derived schedule, the person attending the meeting on Saturday is G.
