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 statements and answer the question.Solution
From statement I, X is two boxes above T. Y is one box below T. Only three boxes are between W and Y. W is below Y. U is one box above W. We get: From statement I alone, we get Y is kept three boxes above U. From statement II, R is the third box from the bottom. Only three boxes are between R and S. T is one box above Y, which is one box above V. U is below V. We get:
From statement II alone, we cannot answer the question as we cannot ix the position of U. Therefore, data given in statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question but data given in statement II alone is not sufficient to answer the question.
