Of three persons, two take relish, two take pepper, and two take salt. The one who takes no salt takes no pepper, and the one who takes no pepper takes no relish.
#1. No salt => No pepper
#2. No pepper => No relish
Thus it is obvious that:
No salt => No pepper => No relish
But there are 2 (of the 3) who take salt, 2 take pepper and 2 take relish ... (i)
Thus, 1 person doesn't take salt, 1 doesn't take pepper and 1 doesn't take relish ... (ii)
But, no salt implies no pepper and that implies no relish
Thus, (ii) above refers to the same person who doesn't take any of the three things.
Conclusion:
# One person doesn't take any of the three add-ons (salt, pepper, relish)
# Two people take all three add-ons (salt, pepper, relish)
Let's look at the statements:
I. The person who takes no salt also takes no relish - TRUE - he is the same person who takes no add-ons
II. Any of the three persons who takes pepper also takes relish and salt - TRUE - he is one of the 2 people who take all three add-ons
III. The person who takes no relish is not one of those who takes salt - TRUE - he is the one who takes no add-ons
