different generations and there are three married couples among them. Four
of them are males and four of them are of the opposite gender (though not
necessarily in the same order.)They like different movies viz., The Twins,

more information is also given.

• Five students, P, Q, R, S and T stand in a line in some order
and receive cookies and biscuits to eat. No student gets the
same number of cookies or biscuits. The person first in the
queue gets the least number of cookies. Number of cookies
or biscuits received by each student is a natural number
from 1 to 9 with each number appearing at least once.
The total number of cookies is two more than the total
number of biscuits distributed. R who was in the middle of
the line received more goodies (cookies and biscuits put
together) than everyone else. T receives 8 more cookies
than biscuits. The person who is last in the queue received
10 items in all, while P receives only half as many totally. Q
is after P but before S in the queue. Number of cookies Q
receives is equal to the number of biscuits P receives. Q
receives one more good than S and one less than R. Person
second in the queue receives an odd number of biscuits
and an odd number of cookies.
