A new bank has decided to stay open only on weekends - all day Saturday and Sunday - and no other days. The bank has hired two managers (U and V), Four tellers (W,X,Y, and Z), and two operation officers (S and T), for a total of exactly eight full-time employees. No part-time employees are hired. Each employee works a complete day when working.

A manager must be on duty each day.
The managers cannot work on the same day.
At least two tellers must be working on the same day.
W and X will not work on the same day.
S and Z will only work on Saturday.
No employee can work on consecutive days, but each employee must work on Saturday or Sunday.


Which one of the following is an acceptable group of employees that could work on Saturday?
 
a)         ZWYST
b)         UVWYZS
c)         VWXST
d)         UZST
e)         VWZS

A manager must be on duty each day. - so in (a) there r no managers
 
The managers cannot work on the same day. - so in (b) there r 2 managers
 
W and X will not work on the same day. - so (c) is not the answer
 
At least two tellers must be working on the same day. - so its not (d)
 
Hence the Answer is (e).....
