LG Game 1 Question 2 Explanation, by LSATHacks

This question asks who cannot be the driver. You should think about the answers based on who is the most useful driver:

• Faith is the most useful. She can meet both rules 1 and 2, by driving Hannah and Juan.
• Kenneth and Gus are the second most useful drivers. Each of them can fulfill one rule.
• Hannah, Juan and Lisa aren’t useful as drivers: they don’t fulfill any rules.

So the right answer will likely:

1. Not have Faith.
2. Have one of Hannah, Juan and Lisa.

That’s answer E, which is CORRECT. Why doesn’t E work? Because Faith and Gus aren’t driving, so there is no one to drive Hannah.

You don’t need to try the rest once you are sure about E. All you need to have done is looked at them, and decided they were unlikely. (Because, for example, A-C have Faith.)
