Five swimmers (George, Peter, Robert, Mathew, and John) have been preparing for a competition. The five swimmers each compete in the four different strokes (backstroke, breaststroke, butterfly, and freestyle). The top three finishers in each event will qualify for the finals in that stroke.
1) Only one contestant qualified in all four strokes.
2) No contestant finished last in more than one event.
3) Peter finished better than Mathew in the butterfly.
4) George finished better in the backstroke than he did in the butterfly.
5) George finished just behind Peter and just ahead of John in the breaststroke.
6) Mathew finished just ahead of Robert in the freestyle.
7) John's finish in the backstroke was the same as Mathew's in the butterfly.
8) Mathew only finished in the same position in the backstroke and the freestyle..
79) Neither Peter nor John finished third in any event.
10) Robert finished in a different position in each event.
11) Peter finished only two events in the same position.
12) The contestant who finished first in the freestyle did not qualify in the backstroke.
13) The contestant who finished second in the butterfly beat Mathew in the freestyle.
14) The contestant who finished fifth in the backstroke did not finish third in the butterfly.
15) No contestant finished in the same position in both the breaststroke and the butterfly.
Using the following clues, determine the order of finish in each of the four strokes.I suppose you have heard of Einstein's riddle, which only 2% of the world's population is able to solve. Well, just like this one
I'm looking at this on a excel spreadsheet... I hope I get the answer soon...
