Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In a race, there are five participants: X, Y, Z, W, and V. X finishes before Y but after Z. W finishes before V. If Z finishes first, who finishes last? (2023)
  • Step 1: Identify the participants in the race: X, Y, Z, W, and V.
  • Step 2: Understand the order of finishing based on the clues given.
  • Step 3: The first clue states that X finishes before Y but after Z. This means Z finishes before X, and X finishes before Y.
  • Step 4: The second clue states that W finishes before V. This means W finishes before V.
  • Step 5: The question states that Z finishes first. So, we have Z in 1st place.
  • Step 6: Since X finishes after Z, X must be in 2nd place.
  • Step 7: Since X finishes before Y, Y must be in 3rd place.
  • Step 8: Now we know Z is 1st, X is 2nd, and Y is 3rd.
  • Step 9: W finishes before V, but we don't know their exact positions yet. They must be in 4th and 5th places.
  • Step 10: Since W finishes before V, W must be in 4th place and V must be in 5th place.
  • Step 11: Therefore, V finishes last.
  • Order of Finishers – Understanding the sequence of participants based on given conditions.
  • Logical Deduction – Using provided information to deduce the positions of all participants.
