rained for 13 days. But when it rained in the morning, the
afternoon was lovely. And when it rained in the afternoon,
the day was preceded by clear morning.
Altogether there were 11 very nice mornings and 12 very nice
afternoons. How many days did their holiday last?

Answer / guest
The holiday last for 18 days.
Let's assume the number of days as follows:
Rain in the morning and lovely afternoon = X days
Clear morning and rain in the afternoon = Y days
No rain in the morning and in the afternoon = Z days
Number of days with rain = X + Y = 13 days
Number of days with clear mornings = Y + Z = 11 days
Number of days with clear afternoons = X + Z = 12 days
Solving above 3 equations, we get X = 7, Y = 6 and Z = 5
Hence, total number of days on holiday = 18 days
