A won Gold
D won silver
C won Bronze
A gold ,
D silver,
C bronze
According to 3rdstatement:both c an d won the medal or both don't won't.
case1:let c and d both don't won the medal
then a,b and c won the medal
but then statement 4th never becomes false.so reject this case.
case2:we are left with c and d won the medal and according to the statements:
A won the gold
D won the silver
C won the bronze.
