Grandmother Brown is going to host a huge family gathering on Thanksgiving Day. She has eight grandchildren and this year Grandmother has decided that they will all help with the serving or clean up. The kitchen is small so she must select four of the children to wash dishes after the meal. The others will help with the serving during the meal.

The selection is not an easy matter, however, for there are jealousies and attachments among the children which prevent a free choice of four dishwashers. Can you help Grandmother select a dish washing crew of four satisfying all these whims?

  • Travis will work with anybody.
  • Michael won't wash dishes unless Vinolia helps too.
  • Vinolia won't work with Jen.
  • Nicholas won't work without Funmi.
  • Jen will work with anybody.
  • Clark won't wash dishes with Nicholas unless Stephen helps too, and won't work with Vinolia unless Nicholas also helps.
  • Stephen won't work with both Michael and Vinolia, and won't wash dishes with either Travis or Jen.
  • Funmi won't help unless either Michael or Clark wash dishes and won't work with Vinolia unless
  • Stephen works too, and won't work with both Travis and Jen.

Please state the names of the four grandchildren who will be washing the dishes and give a full explanation of how you made your selection.
