IBPS PO Mains 30 Nov 2024 Shift 2 Paper

Concept:Arrange all 15 performers in the given six-day, three-slot schedule using the clues, then identify the slot that comes immediately after $J$.Explanation:• $B$ is on Wednesday, $G$ is in Slot III, and $K$ is on the day immediately after $G$.• Since there are exactly two slots between $K$ and $B$, and $B$ is after $K$, we get $G$ on Monday Slot III and $K$ on Tuesday Slot I.• $K$ and $J$ are on the same day, so $J$ is on Tuesday. As $J$ is not in the last slot, $J$ occupies Tuesday Slot II.• $A$ is in Slot I, and no one performs between $A$ and $M$, so $A$ is Thursday Slot I and $M$ is Friday Slot I, making Thursday Slots II and III vacant.• $M$ and $D$ are on the same day, so $D$ is Friday Slot II. The number of slots before $J$ equals the number of slots after $D$, which matches this placement.• $O$ is immediately before $H$ but on different days, so $O$ is Friday Slot III and $H$ is Saturday Slot I.• $P$, $C$, and $F$ are in the same slot on different days, with $F$ before $C$, $C$ before $D$, and $D$ before $P$. Thus, $F$ is Monday Slot II, $C$ is Wednesday Slot II, and $P$ is Saturday Slot II.• Applying the remaining condition for $L$, $N$, and $E$ gives the final arrangement:• From the final arrangement, $J$ is in Tuesday Slot II.• The slot immediately after $J$ is Tuesday Slot III, which is vacant.Answer:No one performs in the slot immediately after $J$. Therefore, the correct option is C: No one performs.
