In a logic puzzle, 6 boxes are arranged left to right. Red box is 3 positions from left. Green is 2 right of Yellow. Blue is immediate left of Red. If there are only 4 colors, where is Yellow?
A1st position
B2nd position
C4th position
D5th position
Correct Answer:
A. 1st position
Explanation:
Red at 3, Blue at 2. Green 2 right of Yellow: if Yellow at 1, Green at 3. But Red at 3. If Yellow at 4, Green at 6. This works: Blue(2), Red(3), Yellow(4), Green(6). Yellow at position 4... Rechecking: Yellow could be at 1 if Green at 3, but Red there. So Yellow at 4.
