Each of the questions below consists of a question and two statements numbered I and II given below in You have in 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.
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.
c: if the data either in statement I alone or in statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question.
d: if the data given in both the statements I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question.
e: if the data in both the statements I and II together are necessary to answer the question.
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.
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)
