LSAT 33, Logic Game 4, Question 20, LSATHacks

Local rule questions can be solved with a three step process:

1. Draw the new rule.
2. See if you can make a deduction.
3. Check if that deduction is the answer.

I’ll show you how it works in practice. First, you reproduce the main diagram. It shouldn’t take long, 5-15 seconds. You don’t need to reproduce the numbers for the local version. 

Then you add G in 7.

Then you see what you can deduce. 9 has to be red, since it’s the only color left. G can’t go beside itself, and Y is already in spot 5.

Now, we check if that is the answer. It is! D is CORRECT. 

Done correctly, this can be a 15-30 second process. 

None of the other answers have to be true. As we saw in the setup, store 2 can be green or yellow, so A and E are wrong.

And if store 2 were green, then either 8 or 10 could be yellow. So B and C are wrong.
