If Mr.A paints for 8 days, he paints = 8/6 houses If Mr.B paints for 6 days, he paints = 6/8 houses So, remaining painting work have to be done by Mr.C is, Days to work for Mr.C = 3 - 8/6 + 6/8 = 3 - 32/24 + 18/24 = 3 - 50/24 =(3/1)-(50/24) = 72/24 - 50/24 = 22/24 = 11/12.

This is Impossible. If R is false, P has to be in theatre with S. P playing cards with Q. This is Impossible. If q is False, S and P are in theatre. Q and R are not murderers. This is also impossible because one of them is the murderer. so P is false. Q and R are not murderers. P playing cards. hence our murderer is S..

since there's only 5 digits at the answer, and A is the second number from E x 4, so A must be 2. since E x 4 = _ 2 and E is more or equal 8, so E must be 8. since B x 4 is less than 10, than B must be 1 since D x 4 + 3 = _1, yhan D must be 7 since C x 4 must be more than 30, C must be 6 or 9 (7&8 already been used). and with a little trial C = 9.
