Got this from brilliant.com. Was fun and made me think a few minutes without being too difficult.

Five friends competed in a race.

Pyrrha finished faster than Blake.
The smallest difference in finishing times was between Pyrrha and Ruby.
The largest difference in finishing times was between Ruby and Weiss.
Yang finished either 1st or 3rd.

List the correct placing for each person.

This is like the logic puzzle books you used to be able to buy(you probably still can)where they provided a grid so you could work things out.
Puzzles like "the man with the beard lives next door to the doctor and so on"
