PT #32 Sec3 Q3
This is the case where 6/8 students are giving oral speeches. I'm really confused about how they arrived at B for question 3...i don't understand why C,D, and E cannot also be correct?

To paraphrase the third rule, if N gives a report on Monday or Tuesday, then H and I must each give a report on the following day. Therefore, N and H cannot give reports on the same day as each other unless it's Wednesday.

Re: PT #32 Sec3 Q3
Why can't it go, for example
M = O, H
T = G, L
W = R, I
I'm missing something obvious, but i don't know what. Not everyone has to present, why can't B C and E also be possible?
[CASE]
There are 8 students - GHLIKLNOR
Rules:
3 Days
Two reports each day, one in morning one afternoon
G -> Tuesday
(OvR) -> Morning
N(m/t) -> HI on following day
M = O, H
T = G, L
W = R, I

Re: PT #32 Sec3 Q3
It sounds like you're misreading the question. It's not asking which of the various pairs could give reports on Wednesday. It's asking which pair, if assigned to one of the three days, would have to be assigned to Wednesday.
