* Mário doesn't like oranges; (1) * João doesn't play football; (2) * The swimmer hates bananas; (3) * The swimmer and the one who likes oranges do different sports; (4) * The one who likes papayas and the footballer visit Filipe every Saturday. (5) * The swimmer doesn't like bananas (3) and he doesn't like oranges (4), so the swimmer eats papayas (6); * João is not a football player (2), neither Felipe (5), so Mario is a football player; (7) * The football player doesn't like papayas (5) and Mario, the football player, doesn't like oranges (1), so Mario likes bananas; (8) * The basketball player likes oranges (9), because (6) and football player likes bananas; (8) * Felipe doesn't like papayas (5) neither bananas (8), so Felipe likes oranges; (10) So we have: Mario - Football - Banana João - Swimming - Papaya Filipe - Basketball - Orange
