• B. Kunal and Ashish
• C. Ashish and John
• D. John and Rohit

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

Kunal and Ashish

(I). Kunal stays close to school. So, the other three --- Rohit, Ashish and John stay far from the school.

(II). Rohit, Kunal and Ashish do not study in class VI. So, John studies in class VI.

Rohit and Kunal are not good at all subjects and John is in class VI. So, Ashish is good at all subjects and studies in class V.

Clearly, Rohit and Kunal study in class IV.

(III). Rohit is good at Mathematics, Kunal is weak in Mathematics. Ashish is good at all the subjects. Clearly, John is weak in all the subjects.

	Stay	Class	Good At	Weak In
Rohit	Far	IV	Mathematics	Hindi, Social Science, Science
Kunal	Close	IV	Hindi, Social Science, Science	Mathematics
John	Far	VI		All subjects
Ashish	Far	V	All subjects
