"A previous (8) of the dormitory (8) a snake into the room of the (8) engineering student."
RESIDENT - INSERTED - TRENDIES. (It's the best I could come up with)

You got the first two right. What word (the superlative form is used here) is often used to describe engineers?

I had "the classroom," but abandoned it because it doesn't "describe" a schoolmaster.

Neither. If at each turn, you can add subtract or change a letter, you can probably produce a large number (most?) of the words in the language starting with a single word. On the other hand, the language is finite, so you can't go on forever (without repetition).

(DAD BEDDED A BAD BAD BABE)

Mark, you have replaced Captain Marvel (or, possibly Wonder Woman) as my new super hero. Laughing


For the rest of you poor non-super heroes one way to solve this problem is:


+ Question 20 should be E as noted.

+ Question 1 cannot be A or B and question 2 cannot be B because of question 1

+ The pair 10 and 16 have answers A and D respectively.

+ The pair 6 and 17 do not have answers A,C,E. Question 2 says that question 16 and 17 cannot have the same answer leaving only answer B acceptable for question 17 and D for 6.

+ Question 13 says that the answer A can be removed from question 3,5,7,19 and 13 itself because than the answer C will be correct. Therefore, answer C for 13 and A for 9 are not correct. We know that question 17 has answer B so answer E is wrong as well. The answer A for question 11 conflicts with question 1, leaving only D as an answer to question 13.

+ Question 15 has answer A and so does question 12.

+ Question 9 and 10 cannot have the same answer and so with 10 and 11. Answers D,E for question 2 are not right.

+ Question 7 leaves answers A,C,E possible for question 8. The available answers to 3 and 4 also remove answer A.

+ Question 2 removes the answers: D for 5, E for 7, A&D for 14, B for 18 and E for 19.

+ The answer B is not correct for 5 and so answer E is not right for the first question.

+ Answer D for 5 was removed. Thus, we can remove D for question 4.

+ The sum of answers A or E is 6 or 8 (question 8). Because of question 1 the answer to question 4 must be the remaining odd number 5 - answer B.

+ Question 3 may have answer B or D (odd number) leaving answer E for 5.

+ Questions 5 and 20 have answer E so B is not correct for 3 leaving only D. So the answer to question 1 is D and the answer to question 8 is E.

+ All answers E for all remaining questions are wrong.

+ Question 9 and question 8 cannot have the same answer (E) leaving answer A for 2 and D for 7.

+ There are 5 answers A (question 4) 3 answers E (question 3) and more than 5 answers D (question 14) leaving only answer A suitable for 18.

+ Answer B is not correct for 9 (conflict with 11) and also C is wrong,leaving only D.

+ Question 1-10 are filled so the answer for 11 is B.

+ There are three questions with answer B (4,11,17), two open questions(14,19) and according to 18 there should be five B answers so we fill B for 14 and 19.

+ A good check is to count the number of D answers which is 7 right like the answer to 14.

So now you know. :wink:
