Directions for question :
Gautami, Helen, Ileana, Jaya, Katrina, Lara, Madhuri, Neha and Oviya were nine actresses from among whom three teams consisting respectively of two, three and four members had to be formed, one team each for each of the sequels of an epic trilogy to be shot by a renowned director, in any order.
The following were the conditions for the selection in the formation of the teams :
a) Ileana had to have three more actresses with her, as the sequel for which she was selected had four lady characters
b) Ileana and Oviya would represent the same character in the sequels of the trilogy, so could not be in the same team
c) Neha and Helen would also represent the same character in the sequels of the trilogy, so could not be in the same team
d) Lara and Madhuri would represent the character of twins in one of the sequels of the trilogy, and hence had to be together in the team
e) Jaya was acting in the sequel which had only three lady characters
Question:
If Jaya, Katrina and Neha form the team of three members, which of the following must be true ?
Oviya must be in a two member team with Helen or Gautami
Lara must be teamed up with Helen
Oviya must be in a two member team with Ileana or Gautami
Ileana would be in the team of four members with Lara, Madhuri and Gautami
Jaya, Katrina and Neha formed the team of three members
From (a) and (b), and the above point, we can say that Ileana was in the team of four members and the team of three members was already decided
Hence Oviya had to be in the team of two members
From (d), we can conclude that Lara and Madhuri was in the team of four members along with Ileana
So we are left with Gautami and Helen, who could have occupied the single vacancies left in the team of four and the team of two, in any order
Hence, if Jaya, Katrina and Neha form the team of three members, Oviya must be in a two member team with Helen or Gautami
