Nine individuals are sitting on the dais, from left to right, to receive an award at a local club. The awardees include at least one from each of five age groups: children, teenagers, young adults, middle-aged adults, and senior citizens. The first or the last seat is occupied by a senior citizen, who is the only individual in that age group. No two individuals from the same age group are sitting next to each other. For example, no young adult is sitting next to another young adult. There are more middle-aged adults than individuals of any other age group. There are fewer teenagers than children, young adults, or middle-aged adults. The first three individuals from the left are a young adult, a teenager, and another young adult.
In the table, select the age group of the Fifth individual from the left and the age group of the Seventh individual from the left. Make only two selections, one in each column.
Let children, teenagers, young adults, middle-aged adults, and senior citizens be c, t, y, m, s respectively.
Info given ->
using 1 and 4 ->
[y] [t] [y] [] [] [] [] [] [s]
As we are given m>y, that means m is 3 or more than 3. Using 2, 6 and 5 ->
[y] [t] [y] [m] [] [m] [] [m] [s]
We are given t<c, So c is at least 2. Using 3 and 6 ->
[y] [t] [y] [m] [c] [m] [c] [m] [s]
5th 7th
Hence, children are sitting on 5th and 7th seat.
In the table, select the age group of the Fifth individual from the left and the age group of the Seventh individual from the left. Make only two selections, one in each column.
Let children, teenagers, young adults, middle-aged adults, and senior citizens be c, t, y, m, s respectively.
Info given ->
- s is in 1st or 9th position and s = 1
- m > c, t, y, s
- t < c, y, m
- 1st 3 individuals are y, t, y
- No two individuals from the same age group are sitting next to each other
- c, t, y, m, s > 0
using 1 and 4 ->
[y] [t] [y] [] [] [] [] [] [s]
As we are given m>y, that means m is 3 or more than 3. Using 2, 6 and 5 ->
[y] [t] [y] [m] [] [m] [] [m] [s]
We are given t<c, So c is at least 2. Using 3 and 6 ->
[y] [t] [y] [m] [c] [m] [c] [m] [s]
5th 7th
Hence, children are sitting on 5th and 7th seat.

Not sure if i solved this correctly but i started by writing out what i did know in 9 slots.
The first 3 slots are y, t, y, m, _, _, _, _, _
and we know the last slot is s since it wasnt listed first.
We also know there are more children than y, and t < c and m. and we know m is the most frequent.
This info tells us we need m to appear the most, and we need c to be greater than T.
since m is the 4th slot, c has to follow, then m and then c again to be > T and finally for the 6th term it has to be C to be the greatest category. Putting this all together we get:
y,t,y,m,c,m,c,m,s
hope I did this right

Hello, everyone.
This is the second day of the competition.
I truly like the concept of competitiveness.
Every day is new. Everything can change. To win, you must maintain a consistent pace.
Get ready. Here we GO.
Let's get started with our explanation for this topic on day two:
First step in Two Parts, before reading the text I understand what is the question and what is it asking for:
Analyze the Question:
Question: First, let's look at the question. We are dealing with kind of Logic problem. this type of problems sometimes being very confusing.
To make it a bit easier. we will draw the scenrio out.
[?]: We have to pick and understand the 5th place and 7th place in a group.
Reading and Understanding: The text describe our story here.
We can conclude and seperate our given information to 2 portions:
1- number of people
2- the order of them
Portion A
lets write the details we have:
C , T , Y , M , S Total
2 1 2 3 1 = 9
this is the only scenrio we have given the constraints (:))
Portion B
lets write the details we have:
Y , T , Y , , , , , , S
we have 5 places empty. we know that no 2 individuals can sit next to each other.
Synthesize the A and B portions
Y , T , Y , , , , , , S
C , T , Y , M , S Total
2 1 2 3 1 = 9
We have to 2 Y already - Checked (V) We have to 1 T already - Checked (V)
We have to 1 S already - Checked (V)
We left with the M's and C's
*we have 5 places empty. we know that no 2 individuals can sit next to each other.
so it must be :
Y , T , Y , M , C , M , C , M , S_
Now we are asked about 5th and 7th place. We can see that both are Childern
THE ENDI hope you liked the explanation, I have tried my best here.Let me know if you have any questions about this question or my explanation.
