Who is tallest among the five boys Samar, Ramesh, Rakesh, Karan and Vishwas ?
I. Rakesh is taller than Karan and Ramesh, but not as tall as Samar.
II. Samar is not the tallest.
I : Rakesh > Karan , Ramesh
Also, Samar > Rakesh
=> Samar > Rakesh > Karan , Ramesh
We do not know the position of Vishwas. Thus, I alone is insufficient.
Clearly, II alone is also insufficient.
I & II : Samar is not the tallest.
=> Vishwas is taller than Samar.
=> Vishwas > Samar > Rakesh > Karan , Ramesh
=> Vishwas is the tallest.
Thus, I & II together are sufficient.
