📘 Step-by-Step Solution & Detailed Explanation:

Who ordered the burger and what drink did they order?


Step 1: Analyze the given information and clues

We have four friends (Aditi, Bharat, Chandan, Deepika), four dishes (pizza, pasta, burger, salad), and four drinks (cola, lemonade, orange juice, water). Each person ordered one unique dish and one unique drink.

  • Aditi didn't order pizza or cola.
  • Bharat ordered salad but not lemonade.
  • Chandan ordered pasta.
  • Deepika didn't order burger or orange juice.
  • Aditi ordered orange juice.

Step 2: Deduce information based on the clues

• From Clue 5, Aditi ordered orange juice.
• From Clue 3, Chandan ordered pasta.
• From Clue 2, Bharat ordered salad.
• From Clue 4, Deepika didn’t order burger or orange juice, so she must have ordered pizza.
• This leaves the burger for Aditi.


Step 3: Determine the drinks

• Aditi: Orange Juice (Clue 5).
• Bharat: Cannot have lemonade, so he must have water.
• The remaining drinks for Chandan and Deepika are cola and lemonade.


Step 4: Table of assignments





















Friend Dish Drink
Aditi Burger Orange Juice
Bharat Salad Water
Chandan Pasta Cola / Lemonade
Deepika Pizza Cola / Lemonade

Final Answer:

The person who ordered the burger is Aditi, and her drink was orange juice.
Answer: (A) Aditi, orange juice.
