All friends play two games each and study one subject each.
Diksha and Shreya study Mechanical Engineering. Both Mechanical Engineering students play Chess.
Diksha plays Billiards.
Tanvi studies Physics. The Physics student plays Chess and Badminton.
One studies Computer Science and plays Golf and Lawn Tennis.
| Student | Subject | Game 1 | Game 2 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Diksha | Mechanical | Billiards | Chess |
| Shreya | Mechanical | Chess | |
| Tanvi | Physics | Chess | Badminton |
| Akriti | Computer Science | Golf | Lawn Tennis |
One student also does weight training.
Since all other students have two games, the person who does weight training must be Shreya, as all other students have two games already
| Student | Subject | Game 1 | Game 2 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Diksha | Mechanical | Billiards | Chess |
| Shreya | Mechanical | Chess | Weight training |
| Tanvi | Physics | Chess | Badminton |
| Akriti | Computer Science | Golf | Lawn Tennis |
Thus, 6 games are played and 3 subjects are studied by all the students.
Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".
