Four families decided to attend the marriage ceremony of one of their colleagues. One family has no kids, while the others have at least one kid each. Each family with kids has at least one kid attending the marriage. Given below is some information about the families, and who reached when to attend the marriage.

• The family with $2$ kids came just before the family with no kids.
• Shanthi who does not have any kids reached just before Sridevi’s family.
• Sunil and his wife reached last with their only kid.
• Anil is not the husband of Joya.
• Anil and Raj are fathers.
• Sridevi’s and Anita’s daughters go to the same school.
• Joya came before Shanthi and met Anita when she reached the venue.
• Raman stays the farthest from the venue.
• Raj said his son could not come because of his exams.

Name the correct pair of husband and wife.

• A. Raj and Shanthi
• B. Sunil and Sridevi
• C. Anil and Sridevi
• D. Raj and Anita

Answer 1

Ans should be B) 

from previous question we concluded 

$1^{st}$ came Anita's family

$2^{nd}$ came joya's family 

$3^{rd}$ came shanthi's family

last came sridevi's family 

now  from this info "Sunil and his wife reached last with their only kid"  it is clear sunil and sridevi is couple 

---

 

• Anil is not the husband of Joya.
• Anil and Raj are fathers.

  so from above clue , anil is not husband of joya and he is father so it cant be husband of shanthi (who has no kid) so only choice is , pair with anita , sridevi and sunil are alredy couple . Raj is also father so he is husband of joya and remain one raman should be husband of shanthi.                                                    hence  "anita - anil, joya-raj , shanthi-raman, sridevi-sunil "
