Question 150

Mandar is taller than Sunil and Raghu is shorter than Abhishek. Who among them is the shortest ?
I. Raghu is shorter than Mandar.
II. Abhishek is shorter than Sunil.

Solution

It is given that Mandar is taller than Sunil and Raghu is shorter than Abhishek => $$M>S$$ and $$A>R$$ ------------(i)

I : Raghu is shorter than Mandar => $$M>R$$

From above statement, we cannot find the shortest person, hence I alone is insufficient.


II : Abhishek is shorter than Sunil => $$S>A$$ ------------(ii)

From (i) and (ii), we get : $$M>S>A>R$$

Thus, R is the shortest.

$$\therefore$$ II alone is sufficient.

=> Ans - (B)
