Question 229

Who among A, B, C, D and E each having a different weight is the heaviest ?
I. C is heavier than only A.
II. D is lighter than E and B.

Solution

I : C is heavier than only A, => A is the lightest and C is the 4th heaviest.

Thus, statement I alone is not sufficient.

Similarly, II alone is also not sufficient. Combining both statements, we get :

D is lighter than E and B.

=> E, B > D > C > A

Thus, either E or B is the heaviest, thus both statements even together are insufficient.

=> Ans - (D)
