When a question gives you a new rule, the first thing you should do is draw it:
Don’t skip this step. It seems trivial, but it’s far easier to make the next deduction if you have something on paper.
Once you draw the new rule, see what rules it affects. T is mentioned in the first rule: we need ST or SU. We can’t have ST on this question, so we need SU.
This in turn connects with the third rule: SU is before R and W:
I drew them floating above the diagram. I also drew the one remaining variable, M. The comma indicates that M could go before or after SU and the rest.
Now, we can use this diagram to eliminate wrong answers.
Ramirez has so be after T, S and U, so A is wrong.
Wong has to be after T, S and U, so B is wrong.
Sanderson has to be before U, R and W. S can go third at latest. So C is wrong.
Ujemori has to be before R and W, so they can’t go fifth. So D is wrong.
This diagram proves that E is CORRECT:
