1. Check your logic.

Secret agents.

Solve the puzzle using the statements below and determine each agent's name, rank and surname. Use models:

Agent 2’s surname isn’t Miller; and we know that Miller isn’t the highest, so Miller must have ranks 3, 4 or 5.

Phil isn’t the highest, so he can’t have rank 1.

Five men: Mr. Brook, Mr. Adams, Mr. Miller, Mr. Stout and Mr. Cook are secret agents. They have got ranks from 1 to 5.

Name/Surname	Rank
	1
	2
	3
	4
	5

1. Agent 2's surname isn't Miller.

2. Phil has rank higher than Agent Adams, but he is not the highest.

3. Agent Stout is only 21, but his rank is not the lowest.

4. Mike's best friend is Agent Cook.

5. Bob's rank is higher than Agent Brook's.

6. Miller and Stout aren't the highest.

7. Sid is lower than Bob.

8. Mike's surname isn't Brook.

9. Agent's 3 name is neither Bob nor Phil.

10. Agent 1's name is Dick.

11. Adams's rank is higher than Brook's, but lower than Miller's.
