colleen is younger than marie and older than patsy. what is each girls age?
maria?
colleen?
patsy?
kenyada?

Well, start by knowing that Maria is older than Patsy.
Maria
Patsy
Then, Maria is younger than Kenyada.
Kenyada
Maria
Patsy
Colleen is younger than Marie, so she's either right below Maria and above Patsy or she's at the very bottom. However, it says she is older than Patsy, so the order must be:
Kenyada
Maria
Colleen
Patsy.
