(i) C is a lady doctor and she does not travel with A and F, who are sisters. 

(ii) B, a male engineer, travels with only G, a teacher, in a Swift. 

(iii) D is a male doctor.

(iv) Two persons belonging to the same profession do not travel in the same vehicle. 

(v) A is not an engineer and travels in a Creta. 

(vi) The pair of sisters A and F travels in the same vehicle. 

What is the profession of F?

• A. Engineer
• B. Teacher
• C. Data Inadequate
• D. Doctor

Hint:

In such puzzles, use the process of elimination and systematically assign the passengers to the vehicles based on the given conditions to determine the correct answer.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

We are given that:
- A and F are sisters and travel in the same vehicle.
- B, a male engineer, travels with G, a teacher, in the Swift.
- D is a male doctor.
- A is not an engineer and travels in a Creta.
- C is a lady doctor and does not travel with A and F, who are sisters.
- Two persons of the same profession do not travel in the same vehicle.

Step 1: Assign B and G to Swift.
Since B and G are already specified to travel in the Swift, we place them there.

Step 2: Assign A and F to Creta.
Since A is not an engineer and travels in the Creta, F must be an engineer because the professions cannot repeat in the same vehicle.

Step 3: Assign the remaining passengers.
C, being a lady doctor, cannot travel with A and F, so she must travel in the Nexon. D, a male doctor, will also travel in the Nexon with C. Finally, E, being the remaining teacher, will also travel in the Nexon.
Thus, the profession of F is an Engineer.
Therefore, the correct answer is option (a).
