Answer 2

Answer in detail. Masha, Sveta, Tanya, Yulia and Katya went to the cinema and queued for tickets. If Masha had stood in the middle of the queue, she would have been between Sveta and Katya, and if Masha had stood at the end of the queue, she could have been next to Yulia, but Masha stood in front of her friends. Who is behind whom?

The answer is: Masha, Sveta, Tanya, Katya, Yulia.

To find the answer, we can use the following logic:

- Since Masha stood in front of her friends, she is the first in the queue. - Since Masha would have been between Sveta and Katya if she had stood in the middle, it means that Sveta and Katya are not next to each other, and they are not the first or the last in the queue. - Since Masha could have been next to Yulia if she had stood at the end, it means that Yulia is the last in the queue. - Therefore, the only possible position for Tanya is between Sveta and Katya.
