Among the given persons A, B, C, W, X, Y and Z, who is
the shortest? Statement I: Y is taller than W and B. X is shorter than only Z. Equal number of persons are taller and shorter than W. Statement II: B is not the shortest. C is taller than A. The question given below consists of two statements numbered I and II given below it. You have to decide which of the statements are sufficient to answer the question. Read all the statements and give answer.Solution
From statement I and II alone, we cannot determine the shortest person. By combining statement I and II, Now, Y is taller than W and B. X is shorter than only Z. Equal number of persons are taller and shorter than W. B is not the shortest. C is taller than A. So, we have, ZÂ >Â XÂ >Â YÂ >Â WÂ >Â B / CÂ >Â C / BÂ >Â A So, A is the shortest.
