Statement I: One person has meeting between U and S. V has meeting just after T.

Statement II: Q’s meeting is just before S but not just after T. V has meeting on 27^th January. T’s meeting is after U’s meeting.
Statement III: Two persons have meeting between S’s and T’s meeting. U’s meeting is just before Q’s meeting. T’s meeting is after R’s meeting. Neither S’s nor V’s meeting is on 3^rd January.

the data in any two statements are sufficient to answer the question.
the data in either statement I, II or III are sufficient to answer the question.
the data in statement II and III is sufficient to answer the question, and the data in statement I is not required to answer the question.
the data in all three statements together is needed to answer the question.

Answer 1

1. R’s meeting is 4 days after P’s meeting.

2. Q does not have meeting on 3^rd January.

	Case 1	Case 2
Dates	Persons	Persons
3^rd	× Q	× Q
5^th	P
9^th	R
15^th		P
19^th		R
22^nd
27^th

Statement I: One person has meeting between U and S. V has meeting just after T. So, we have,

Dates	Persons
3^rd	S/U
5^th	Q
9^th	U/S
15^th	P
19^th	R
22^nd	T
27^th	V

Therefore, T has meeting on 22^nd January.

Statement II: Q’s meeting is just before S but not just after T. V has meeting on 27^th January. T’s meeting is after U’s meeting. So, we have,

	Case 1	Case 2
Dates	Persons	Persons
3^rd	U	U
5^th	P	Q
9^th	R	S
15^th	Q	P
19^th	S	R
22^nd	T	T
27^th	V	V

Therefore, T has meeting on 22^nd January.

Statement III: Two persons have meeting between S’s and T’s meeting. U’s meeting is just before Q’s meeting. T’s meeting is after R’s meeting. Neither S’s nor V’s meeting is on 3^rd January. So, we have,

Dates	Persons
3^rd	U
5^th	Q
9^th	S
15^th	P
19^th	R
22^nd	T
27^th	V

Therefore, T has meeting on 22^nd January.

Hence, data in either statement I, II or III are sufficient to answer the question.
