Three ladies X, Y and Z marry three men A, B and C. X is married to A, Y is not married to an engineer. Z is not married to a doctor, C is not a doctor and A is a lawyer. Then which of the following statements is correct?

Solution

Given: X is married to A. A is a lawyer. C is not a doctor. Y is not married to an engineer. Z is not married to a doctor.

Step 1 (Professions):

A is a lawyer.
So the remaining two professions are doctor and engineer for B and C.
Given C is not a doctor ⇒ C must be an engineer.
Therefore, B must be a doctor.

Step 2 (Marriages):

X is married to A (fixed).
Remaining men for Y and Z are B and C.
Z is not married to a doctor, and B is the doctor ⇒ Z cannot marry B ⇒ Z is married to C.
So Y is married to B.

Final Matches:

X – A (Lawyer)
Y – B (Doctor)
Z – C (Engineer)
