Moving to question 16: If Freedom makes a voyage to Martinique in week 3 which of the
0:11
following could be a complete and accurate list of Freedom's destinations in week 4
0:16
and week 5? Alright so gain we're looking for a situation where we have Martinique in
0:22
week 3. And you should notice from question 1 we have Martinique in week 3
0:27
and 4 & 5 are Trinidad and Guadeloupe. Unfortunately we do not see Trinidad in
0:34
Guadalupe as an answer choice but don't give up yet. Turning our attention now to question 13 you
0:41
notice we also have Martinique in week 3 and in that scenario we have Guadalupe
0:46
and Trinidad in weeks 4 and 5 respectively.
0:49
So clearly Guadalupe and Trinidad could be an accurate list of Freedom's
0:56
destinations in weeks 4 and 5 respectively.
1:00
Again proving by our previous work in question number 13. So, you notice we didn't have to do
1:07
any additional work here for question number 16 but again just to make
1:12
sure let's quickly demonstrate why none of the other answer choices follow. And if
1:18
you notice very quickly answer choice (B) Jamaica Guadaloupe
1:22
clearly violates our fourth condition because we know if we have Jamaica we need to have Guadeloupe before it. And if Martinique
1:26
is already in 3rd how cane we have Jamaica in 4th? (C) Martinique
1:33
Trinidad again if Martinique is in 3rd putting Martinique and Trinidad in 4 & 5 would violate condition
1:39
number 5 back-to-back Martiniques not to mention condition number 3 that
1:44
says at least 1 Guadaloupe must be between our exactly two Martiniques. So (C) is out.
1:51
(D) Trinidad and Jamaica and again we know that if we have Trinidad and Jamaica
1:56
that is violating condition number 4 because any proceeding Jamaica must be
2:02
Guadalupe. So (D) is out and then lastly (E) Trinidad and Martinique. Again you notice
2:09
the problem there violates rule number 3. We need at least one G in between
2:15
our two Martiniques. So (E) also doesn't
2:18
follow and (E) would be eliminated.
