Suggested Answer: Answer: fifth 🗳️
Put G in three and try placing the rest of the awards. Begin with F and H, which must stay together (Rule 4). They cant go in four and five, because that wouldnt leave enough room for J to follow the K/L pair. So, F and H must be in the first and second spaces, in either order. Theres nothing more for us to deduce, so lets start checking for the choice that could be true.
The earliest that the Japanese award could be presented is
- third
- fourth
- fifth
- sixth
- seventh
What do we know about the placement of J? It must come after F, H, L, and K. So, with four awards before it, the earliest that J can be presented is fifth. Mark choice B. and move on.
