Workings

Hint
Look for the question.

Answer
N.

Reasoning
Starting with the first letter and taking every other letter gives: TO BE OR NOT TO BE TH

Starting with the second letter and taking every other letter gives: AT IS THE QUESTIO

Combining gives: TO BE OR NOT TO BE THAT IS THE QUESTIO, and the last letter of QUESTION is missing.

Workings

Hint
Start by working out the pairings of the flowers.

Answer
Gardener Red
   yellow + blue

Gardener Green
   yellow + red

Gardener Yellow
   blue + green

Gardener Blue
   red + green

Stage 1 – Pairings
First, we work out the possible flower pairings (BGRY = blue, green, red, yellow).

By (8), Y can only be paired with B and R.

   YB YR

By (5), we have RG.

   YB YR RG

By (9) and (10), the remaining pairing can only be BG.

   YB YR RG BG

Stage 2 – Matchings
Next, we match the flower pairings to the gardeners.

By (3), Gardener Red = Y + B

By (1), Gardener Green = Y + R (as YB has already been determined).

By (2), Gardener Yellow = B + G (as this is the only remaining pairing without R).

Leaving, Gardener Blue = R + G.
