Answer 2

Answer:

The order of the boys in the queue

• The four boys are : Alex, Nick, Phil, and John
• First : Alex is standing in front of John means that he he is first.
• Second : Nick is behind Alex
• Third : Phil is neither the first nor the last. So he takes position after Nick as he can't be last.
• Fourth : John
• Again 'Alex is standing in front of John' expresses that John is last and Alex is three steps ahead from him.
