Can you explain how to set this one up? I feel like I'm shooting fish I a barrel with this question?

An explanation of the setup for this game, as well as the answer to question #2.

You'll need to view this solution through your iPhone or iPad.

How do we know that J is in the 8th position since none of the conditions indicate where J should be?

Hey Aggie K,

We know that we have:
P,G...K
L...K...M
T...M
-and-
H,L...J

Now, let's look at the chains that we've created.
Only M and J can come last (8th). (Don't be fooled by the P,G...K chain--K must come before M.)

The Stem Rule says M is 7th. Therefore, J must be 8th.
