Correct Answer: B

Explanation:

The strategy here is to make a table based on the four restrictive Statements. We shall use the letter X if the student takes the course and a zero if the student does not take the course. We shall use C for Civic, L for Logic, P for Poetry, F for French, I for Islamiyat and La for Law

  • Now, the restrictive Statements indicate the following:
  • a) Students cannot take Logic and Law together
  • b) Students must take either Civic or Poetry but not both
  • c) Students must take four courses

We shall now take note of the above guidelines in preparing the final

  • Now we see that the possible combinations are
  • C,L,F,I or C,F,I, La or L,P,F,I or P,F,I, La
  • We can now proceed to answer with reference to the final Possible Combinations.

From the statement above, we can see that for combination 1 and 2, “Islamiyat” is marked with an X. Therefore Choice B is correct
