G is shorter than I. J is just taller than K. M is not taller than L. The question given below consists of two statements numbered I, and II given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statements are sufficient to answer the question. Read all the statement and answer the question.Solution
From Statement I alone: F is shorter than two persons. J is just shorter than L. G is taller than F. We get many cases as we cannot fix the places of J and V. Case I: G > __ > F > __ > __ > __ > __ > __ Case II: __ > G > F > __ > __ > __ > __ > __ From Statement II alone: K is taller than H. G is shorter than I. J is just taller than K. M is not taller than L. We get many cases as we cannot fix their positions. J > K > H , I > G and L > M After combining statements I and II, we get: I > G > F > L > J > K > H/M > M/H So, K is the third shortest person. Therefore, data given in both statement I and statement II together are sufficient to answer the question.
