I've spent over 1 hr trying to figure out the fruit stand logic game on PrepTest 36 and I just cannot get it. Can someone help me?
A fruit stand carries at least one kind of the following kinds of fruit: figs, kiwis, oranges, pears, tangerines, and watermelons. The stand does not carry any other kind of fruit. The selection of fruits the stand carries is consistent with the following conditions:
If the stand carries kiwis, then it does not carry pears.
If the stand does not carry tangerines, then it carries kiwis.
If the stand carries oranges, then it carries both pears and watermelons.
If the stand carries watermelons, then it carries figs or tangerines or both.
2. Which one of the following could be the only kind of fruit the stand carries?
A) Figs
B) Oranges
C) Pears
D) Tangerines
E) Watermelons
I can figure out that its not B) or E), but I am lost after that. Correct answer is D.
5. If the stand carries watermelons, then which one of the following must be false?
A) The stand does not carry figs.
B) The stand does not carry tangerines.
C) The stand does not carry pears.
D) The stand carries pears but not oranges.
E) The stand carries pears but not tangerines.
Again, I can see that it is not A) or B), but I am lost after that. Correct is E.
It may be something obvious that I am just missing. Thanks !!!
