Maybe if you could give more information? I have been working on this for ten minutes and so far, i got that since gloria hates bruce, bruce must hate gloria, and so Hazel loves Bruce. Gah... i give up, Gloria loves Arthur.

I am really interested in what Math equation could possibly solve this. As of right now it appears to me that there is not enough information to apply an elimination formula.
