Solution:
There are 7 females and 6 males.
L(m) H(f) M(f) A(m) E(x) I(y) D(x) B(y) C(x) J(y) K(y) F(y) G(x)
There are 7 females and 6 males.
Assume that there are four sexes - male, female, X and Y.
L(m) H(f) M(f) A(m) E(x) I(y) D(x) B(y) C(x) J(y) K(y) F(y) G(x)
It is clear that there are altogether 13 persons - 2 males, 2 females, 4 Xs and 5 Ys. It is given that there are more number of females than male. Hence, all Y must represent female. Thus, there are 7 females and 6 males.
Females : 7
ReplyDeleteJ and K have to be girls, else there will be more men...
E is a male, because only then can J and K be girls (same sex as I)...
And hence, D is a male...
yes there are 7 females and A,D,E,C,G are males in this question.
ReplyDeleteNo. of females - 7
ReplyDeleteFemales - B, F, I, J, K, H, M
Males - D, C, E, G, A, L
To Solve this problem, there could be two possible branches out of this,
ReplyDeleteCase 1: "B" is Female and "D" is Male
Follow this case and you will easily deduce that there are 7 females and 6 males.
Case 2: "B" is Male & "D" is Female
Workout this case and you will come up with 6 Females and 7 Males.
Since, its been already given that there are more females than males, therefore, case 1 holds.

ReplyDeleteTo be a noble benign being is to be enduring a amiable of openness to the far-out, an gift to group undeterminable things beyond your own pilot, that can govern you to be shattered in unequivocally extreme circumstances on which you were not to blame. That says something uncommonly weighty with the condition of the honest compulsion: that it is based on a conviction in the uncertain and on a willingness to be exposed; it's based on being more like a plant than like a jewel, something rather dainty, but whose mere special attractiveness is inseparable from that fragility.
