3) C must not be staged on Tuesday.
4) D must be staged on Friday only and should not be immediately preceded by B.

Play C cannot definitely be staged on which of the following days in addition to Tuesday ?

Options

A. Monday
B. Wednesday
C. Friday
D. Thursday

Answer

C

Also, B must be staged immediately after F, i.e. the order F Bmust be followed. But B cannot precede D. So, F and B can be staged on Monday and Tuesday and A and E on Wednesday and Thursday. C, which cannot be staged of Tuesday, shall be staged on Tuesday, shall be staged on Saturday. Thus, the order followed will be:

C cannot be staged on Friday as well because D has to be staged on that day.
