Question 166. Four Cars numbered as (C1, C2, C3 and C4) are participating in a car rally. They have to travel from P to Q then to R. After the race, the following is observed.(i) The digit in the car number and the order in which they depart or arrive at any point is not the same.(ii) The first car to leave P is the second car to reach R.(iii) The first car to reach R is the second car to leave P and the last car to reach Q.Which is the second car to reach Q?
  1.    C1
  2.    C2
  3.    C3
  4.    C4
  5.    Cannot be determined
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> C1


From the conditions (i) and (iii), the 1st car to reach R cannot be C1 or C2 or C4. So, it has to be C3. So, C3 is the second to start at P, the fourth to reach Q and the first to reach R. The first car to leave P cannot be C1 or C2 or C3. So, it has to be C4. So, C4 is the second to reach R and the third to reach Q.=> C2 is the first to reach Q and C, is the second. Thus we get the following arrangement.
     P     Q     R     1.     C4     C2     C3     2.     C3     C1     C4     3.   C2/C1     C4   C1/C2     4.   C1/C2     C3   C2/C1
C1 is the second car to reach Q.
