Let's look at question stem,
We are given:
1. Five speakers will be interviewed, each of them will either be a faculty or an entrepreneur.
2. The majority of interviews on one of the days will not be from Finance.
3. On the
other day, at least four entrepreneurs will be interviewed.
4. Neither day will have more than two interviews with experts from the same industry.
And we are given following information about current speakers:
SaturdayO’Reilly: Faculty, Finance, Fashion
Hoffman: Entrepreneur, Marketing, E-commerce
Epstein: Entrepreneur, Marketing, E-commerce
Jenson: Entrepreneur, Finance, Retail
SundayMartinez: Entrepreneur, Finance, Retail
Kahl: Entrepreneur, Finance, Retail
Wahba: Faculty, Strategy, Education
Emanuel: Faculty, Operations, Manufacturing
There are 3 Entrepreneurs on Saturday and 2 Entrepreneurs on Sunday. This means that on Saturday there will be 4 Entrepreneurs.
This implies that on Sunday, majority of interviews will not be from Finance. Majority means 3 in case of 5. So, there can be only 2 finance speakers on Sunday.
This gives us following information for what we should look for in 5th speaker.
Saturday - Profession must be Entrepreneur, Industry cannot be E-commerce (condition-4)
Sunday -
Area of expertise cannot be finance (already have 2), Industry cannot be Retail (condition-4)
