A, B, C, D, E, F and G are seven members in a family, out of which there are three females and four males. There are two architects, two travel agents, one teacher, one engineer and one doctor. No lady is either a teacher or an engineer. C is a travel agent and is married to A, who is a teacher. F, the engineer, is married to D, who is neither a travel agent nor a doctor. No two ladies have the same profession. B is the sister of G who is an architect.
What is E’s profession?

Solution

No lady is either a teacher or an engineer. No two ladies have the same profession.

=> The three females will be doctor, architect and travel agent each.

C is a travel agent and is married to A, who is a teacher, => A is male and C is female.

F, the engineer, is married to D, => F is male (because no females are engineer) and thus D is female.

D is neither a travel agent nor a doctor, => D is architect.

B is the sister of G who is an architect, => B the last remaining female is doctor, and thus G and E are the remaining males.

Thus, E is a travel agent.

=> Ans - (B)
