You think you're smart, try to solve this word problem

[RL...]

Everything you need to solve the problem is within these paragraphs. My professor gave us the problem just like this so you have exactly what I had to work with.

A music festival was held last week for 4 days, with 1 show each night at a different time between 8:30 and 8:50. Each of the 4 performers played their favorite instruments for 1 night only.

Ted did not play the violin. The Thursday show started at 8:30, but Brett did not perform. Jason, who doesn't play the flute, starred in a time slot that was 5 minutes later than the person who played the piano. The Sunday show featured a flute. The 8:40 show was not the Friday show. Brett did not play the Saturday show. Dan played on Friday, but did not play the piano. The 8:50 show featured a guitar.

Who played what and when?

If a professor gave me that problem, I would answer back "who gives a fuck?"

Ted, Thursday, Piano 8:30
Brett, Sunday, Flute, 8:40
Dan, Friday, Guitar, 8:50
Jason, Saturday, Violin, 8:35

[Ed]

Thursday 8:30 - Ted plays piano
Friday 8:50 - Jason plays guitar
Saturday 8:40 - Dan plays violin
Sunday - Brett plays flute.

I can't figure out what time brett plays. 8:35 or 8:45

And I could also be wrong about all of these.

I hope you have the answer right answer nissantuner, if not expect a vacation.

Ted, Thursday, Piano 8:30
Brett, Sunday, Flute, 8:40
Dan, Friday, Guitar, 8:50
Jason, Saturday, Violin, 8:35

[swimshark]

Thursday 8:30 - Ted plays piano
Friday 8:50 - Jason plays guitar
Saturday 8:40 - Dan plays violin
Sunday - Brett plays flute.

I can't figure out what time brett plays. 8:35 or 8:45

Jason, who doesn't play the flute, starred in a time slot that was 5 minutes later than the person who played the piano.

so jason cant play the guitar because the guitar was played at 850 so jason doesnt play at 8:30 8:40 or 8:50 which are the other show times
