Problem number seven. A fruit bowl contains five types of fruit. Apple, grapes, cherries, strawberry, and banana. Al likes apples. Bach likes apples, cherries, strawberries, and bananas. Cam likes grapes, cherries, strawberries, and banana. Dawn likes apples, grapes, and cherries. Eva likes apples and cherries. The fruit is shared so that everyone gets a different type of fruit, and everyone gets a type of fruit that they like. Who gets the cherries? The first thing to note is that everyone must get a different type of fruit. And we also know that everyone can only get one of the fruits that they like. If we look at Al, we notice that Al only likes the apple. So that means that Al has to get the apple. And since there's only one of each fruit in the bowl, nobody else can get the apple. So you should cross that off of all their lists. Well now, if we look at Eva, Eva only has one other fruit remaining, which is the cherries. And so that means that Eva must get the cherries, because she must get either the apple or the cherries. And we know that she cannot get the apple. So that means that Eva must get the cherries. And since the question asks us who gets the cherries, the answer is E, Eva.
