table i created so far \(\large \color{black}{\begin{align} \begin{array}{|c|c|c|} \hline Name & Occupation & Shirt \ color \\ \hline B & c,s,t & c,s,t \\ \hline C & b & s,t \\ \hline S & c,t & b \\ \hline T & c,s & c,s \\ \hline \end{array} \end{align}}\)

Parth (parthkohli):

remove occupation t from S because Mr. Stockbroker is NOT the tanner.

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

Answer given is Carpenter But i dont know how

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

yea that will be helpful, good catch

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

updated table \(\large \color{black}{\begin{align} \begin{array}{|c|c|c|} \hline Name & Occupation & Shirt \ color \\ \hline B & c,s & c,s,t \\ \hline C & b & s,t \\ \hline S & c & b \\ \hline T & c,s & c,s \\ \hline \end{array} \end{align}}\)

Parth (parthkohli):

that is the answer then =)

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

Yes lol looked easy now actually i didnt understood how to use this line "Mr stock and the tanner dine together regularly" early , I thought it was irrelevent

Parth (parthkohli):

However, your entire table isn't correct, it seems. As soon as you realise that Mr. Stockbroker is the carpenter, it means that B and T, both will be assigned to the occupation s. And two people don't have the same occupation.

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

\(\large \color{black}{\begin{align} \begin{array}{|c|c|c|} \hline Name & Occupation & Shirt \ color \\ \hline B & t & c,s,t \\ \hline C & b & s,t \\ \hline S & c & b \\ \hline T & s & c,s \\ \hline \end{array} \end{align}}\)

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

now it looks correct

Parth (parthkohli):

Yes. Let's complete the table just for fun. Step 1:\[\large \color{black}{\begin{align} \begin{array}{|c|c|c|} \hline Name & Occupation & Shirt \ color \\ \hline B & t & c,s,t \\ \hline C & b & s,t \\ \hline S & c & b \\ \hline T & s & c \\ \hline \end{array} \end{align}}\]

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

more updation \(\large \color{black}{\begin{align} \begin{array}{|c|c|c|} \hline Name & Occupation & Shirt \ color \\ \hline B & t & c,s, \\ \hline C & b & s,t \\ \hline S & c & b \\ \hline T & s & c \\ \hline \end{array} \end{align}}\)

Parth (parthkohli):

more more updation \(\large \color{black}{\begin{align} \begin{array}{|c|c|c|} \hline Name & Occupation & Shirt \ color \\ \hline B & t & s \\ \hline C & b & s,t \\ \hline S & c & b \\ \hline T & s & c \\ \hline \end{array} \end{align}}\)

Parth (parthkohli):

and for the kill, we have \(\large \color{black}{\begin{align} \begin{array}{|c|c|c|} \hline Name & Occupation & Shirt \ color \\ \hline B & t & s \\ \hline C & b & t \\ \hline S & c & b \\ \hline T & s & c \\ \hline \end{array} \end{align}}\)
