Study the following information carefully and answer the questions given below :
(I) A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H are eight students each having a different height.
(ii) D is shorter than A but taller than G.
(iii) E is taller than H but shorter than C.
(iv) B is shorter than D but taller than F.
(v) C is shorter than G.
(vi) G is shorter than F.
Which of the following will definitely be the third from top when the eight students are arranged in descending order of height ?
D is shorter than A but taller than G, => A > D > G
E is taller than H but shorter than C, => C > E > H
B is shorter than D but taller than F, => D > B > F
C is shorter than G and G is shorter than F, => F > G > C
Combining above statements, we get : A > D > B > F > G > C > E > H
When arranged in descending order, B will be third from the top.
=> Ans - (A)
