Thanks for pointing me in the right direction... fml I'm dumb. On the upside, Andrew Shrivell has given me inspiration that even dumb people can get anywhere in life.Manhattan LSAT Noah wrote:There's a discussion of the game here: http://www.manhattanlsat.com/forums/pre ... g-f35.html
When Vancouver is paired with the four other cities, then you only have four pairs of cities connected, not five as is the maximum (which I got from doing #12). I think the only question that inference helps with (but is key for) is 17.jlhero wrote:i just did this game today, the key inference is that Vancouver can pair with all 4 others. and only by doing this we can know what is the maximum # of pairs.
The max is five, like I said, which you get by doing #12. But when V is connected with T P H and M, T and P cannot be connected, as per the last rule, hence there are only four connections with 17.jlhero wrote:no...... you need to also consider that TP is the only pair left possible. so the max is 5
