Comprehension
Five roommates-Ranjita, Sanjana, Teena, Ujwala, and Vijita each do one housekeeping task- mopping, sweeping, laundry, vacuuming, or dusting-one day a week, Monday through Friday.
Vijita does not vacuum and does not do her task on Tuesday.
Sanjana does the dusting, and does not do it on Monday or Friday.
The mopping is done on Thursday.
Teena does her task, which is not vacuuming, on Wednesday.
The laundry is done on Friday, and not by Ujwala.
Ranjita does her task on Monday
Question: 1

When does Sanjana do the dusting?

Show Hint

When a question asks "When," look for negative constraints (e.g., "not Monday or Friday") and cross them off a list of five days. Usually, only one "gap" remains.
