LSAT 78, Logic Game 2, Question 8, LSATHacks

This question assigns R and Y to the project. R is quite restrictive: rule 4 says that if R is in, then O must also be in, and that O must be placed directly before R.

Since one of L or T is always 3rd, that means OR can only go in spots 1 and 2. In the setup, I labelled this as scenarios 1 and 2. Here are those scenarios:

Scenario 1

Scenario 2

The scenarios are both almost full already. Since we have to place Y, that just means Y goes in slot four in both scenarios.

There’s no need to draw that. When doing this under timed conditions, I didn’t draw anything for this question. I just looked at these two scenarios as I had drawn them, in the setup area. Then I went through the answers.

A is CORRECT. In scenario 1, L is assigned to 1923. 

All of the other answers are wrong because they aren’t possible in either scenario 1 or 2.
