Among five friends A, B, C, D and E each running at a different speed in a race, who ran the second slowest ? E ran faster than only two friends. A ran faster than D but slower than B. B did not run the fastest.
E ran faster than only two friends, => E is the third fastest runner.
A ran faster than D but slower than B, => B > A > D.
B did not run the fastest, => C ran the fastest.
Combining above possibilities, we get :
$$\therefore$$ C > B > E > A > D
Thus, A ran the second slowest.
=> Ans - (E)
