Question 221

Who among, P, Q, R, S and T, each having a different age, is definitely the youngest ?
I. R is younger than only T and P.
II. Q is younger than T but not the youngest.

Solution

Clearly in each statement alone, not all members are mentioned, thus both statements alone are insufficient to answer the question. Thus, combining both statements we get :

R is younger than only T and P, => R is the third eldest, while either P or T is eldest and second eldest.

Q is younger than T but not the youngest, => Q is the fourth eldest.

Thus, this leaves S, who is the youngest.

$$\therefore$$ Both statements together are sufficient.

=> Ans - (E)
