very simple!!
since Amina is yonger than the doctor and also older than the one with Red, that shows Amina is not the youngest and not the eldest. so we place Amina as the middle man. Which means the one with the red dress will be the youngest and the Doctor will be the eldest. Also Amina cannot be the doctor and can also not be teacher.....by using the hint we should have this as our final answer: Olanna (Red)(Teacher) < Amina (Green) (Lawyer) < Chiamaka (Yellow) (Doctor)
