This question doesn't make any sense, and is intrinsically flawed. It's invalidating the previous statement in the original conditions that Guadeloupe must be the destination before Jamaica by making an impossible hypothetical question stating that we should assume the destination after Guadeloupe is Trinidad. This is a flawed question and should not be considered as a part of the score for the test. Don't you agree?

Hey there,
Great to see you're engaging strongly with the question. However, this question is not intrinsically flawed. I'm pretty sure where you're going wrong is with your reading of the rule that says, "Guadalupe will be its destination in the week preceding any voyage it makes to Jamaica."
This rule means that when we see Jamaica, we must see Guadalupe before it.
J - ->GJ
It looks like you misunderstood the rule and thought it was saying
G - >GJ. This is not what the rule is saying, however. This is confusing the G to be the sufficient condition for the rule when the sufficient condition is actually J.
Does this make sense? Let us know if you have any questions!

Thank you for asking this question & thank you for answering this Ravi. I was getting stuck on this as well.
