@Bender,
Abigail, Oliver, Rosa, and Blake all attend the same summer camp, where they can cook, kayak, rock climb, and zip-line. Each child has a different favorite activity.
- Abigail’s favorite activity isn’t rock climbing.
- Oliver is afraid of heights.
- Rosa can’t do her favorite activity without a harness.
- Blake likes to keep his feet on the ground at all times.
Can you figure out who likes what?
Sure, I can help you solve this logic puzzle.
- Abigail’s favorite activity isn’t rock climbing.
- Oliver is afraid of heights.
- Rosa can’t do her favorite activity without a harness.
- Blake likes to keep his feet on the ground at all times.
From these clues, we can deduce the following:
- Oliver cannot like zip-lining, as he is afraid of heights.
- Rosa must like either rock climbing or zip-lining, as she needs a harness for her favorite activity.
- Abigail does not like rock climbing, so she either likes cooking, kayaking, or zip-lining.
- Blake does not like rock climbing or zip-lining, so he either likes cooking or kayaking.
Now, let's use the process of elimination to assign each child to their favorite activity:
- Oliver cannot like zip-lining, so he must like either cooking, kayaking, or rock climbing.
- If Rosa likes rock climbing, then she cannot like zip-lining, so she must like either cooking or kayaking. This means Abigail would have to like zip-lining, which contradicts the clue that her favorite activity isn't rock climbing. Therefore, Rosa must like zip-lining, and Abigail must like kayaking or cooking.
- Blake does not like kayaking, so his favorite activity must be cooking. This means Abigail's favorite activity is kayaking.
So, the final assignments are:
- Abigail likes kayaking.
- Oliver likes rock climbing.
- Rosa likes zip-lining.
- Blake likes cooking.
