Each of the questions below consists of a question and two statements
numbered I and II given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the
statements are sufficient to answer the question. Read both the statements and
Give answer a: if the data in Statement I alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in Statement II alone are not sufficient to answer the question.
Give answer b: if the data in Statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in Statement I alone are not sufficient to answer the question.
Give answer c: if the data in either Statement I alone or in Statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question.
Give answer d: if the data in neither Statement I nor II are sufficient to answer the question.
Give answer e: if the data in both the Statements I and II together are necessary to answer the question.
Who amongst P, Q, R, S and T is the tallest ?
I. P is taller than S and T but shorter than R. Q is taller than S.
II. T is taller than S. P is not the tallest.
I : P is taller than S and T but shorter than R. Q is taller than S.
=> $$R > P > S, T$$ and $$Q > S$$
Thus, either R or Q is the tallest, hence I alone is insufficient.
Similarly, II alone is also insufficient. Thus, combining both statements, we get :
T is taller than S.
=> $$R>P>T>S$$ and $$Q > S$$
Thus, we cannot find the tallest member, hence both statements even together are insufficient.
