I see that Henry must be in a lower bench than Frank. BUT, he also must be in a lower option than Xavier. Can you explain why choice C is incorrect?

    Okay, walk us through why you think Henry must also be in a lower option than Xavier. Can't we have Gwen and Xavier in number 1, followed by Henry and Wanda in number 2, followed by Frank and Victor in number 3 and Joan and Yvette in number 4? Let us know what you think!

    if you use the example in the video presentation then Henry is also a lower number than Gwen option B. what am i missing there seems to be multiple correct answers.

    @Doug-Jones and @hfatima1, happy to help! The video explanation presents two scenarios. In the first, Henry is lower-numbered than Gwen. In the second, Henry could be lower-numbered than Gwen, but Gwen could also be lower-numbered than Henry. Since a valid option for G to be first and H to be second exists, we cannot say that Henry MUST be lower-numbered than Gwen in this situation. Therefore, (B) is incorrect. Consider the following arrangement: 1: G (X/Y) 2: H W 3: F V 4: J (Y/X) Does that make sense? Please let us know if you have any other questions!
