Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
I. (Kit-Kat, Milky Bar, Fanta, Perk, Pepsi)
This set contains both Kit-Kat and Fanta (condition 3 is met).
It does not contain Coke (condition 1 is met).
It does not contain Dairy Milk (conditions 2 and 5 are met).
It does not contain Munch, only Pepsi (condition 4 is met).
Conclusion: This combination is correct.
II. (Coke, Perk, Munch, Sprite, Milky Bar)
It does not contain Kit-Kat, so Fanta is not needed (condition 3).
It contains Sprite but not Dairy Milk (condition 2 is met).
It contains Perk but not Dairy Milk (condition 5 is met).
It contains Munch but not Pepsi (condition 4 is met).
Conclusion: This combination is also correct.
III. (Munch, Milky Bar, Perk, Sprite, Pepsi)
Here, Munch and Pepsi are given together.
This violates condition 4 (Munch and Pepsi cannot be together).
Conclusion: This combination is incorrect.
