    Considering options the answer is correct… But we can also think in different way… D might playing chess on computer alone… Now tell what H is doing…???

    There is no sense in the question. Because playing chess online or with computer player doesn’t need partner at the house. So no one can predict that what is “H” doing..

    H is playing chess with D. As the statement saying only nine children are in the room and D is playing chess. Since D cannot play chess alone and H is missing so H must be playing chess with D. Rest all work can be done alone except chess.

    There are Nine children in the house!
    How about ” H” is “What” as:
    Ironing is “A”
    Watching tv is “B”
    Cooking is “C”
    Playing chess is “D”
    Bathing is “E”
    Listening radio is “F”
    Sleeping is “G”
    Dressing is “I”

    As
    Logic means no meanings and only Logic! “Watching TV”, “Cooking”,
    “Listening Radio” or “All of the activities can done by “MULTIPLE
    PEOPLE”. So, Logically the question might be “Who is ‘H'”, as we are
    talking about Logic, so the meaning of sentence(s) Diminish / Be Silent.

    [And “What is H” doing right now?]
    Anyways, This is what I think, Might be Right from an other Angel!
