Question
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 give an answer. There are six students (A, B, C, D, E and F) who scored different number of marks in the exam. Who is the highest scorer? Statement I: F scored more marks than E but scored less number of marks than B and C. D, who is the second highest scorer, scored more number of marks than A and B. Statement II: A scored more marks than E but scored less number of marks F and C. B scored more number of marks than at least three students.Solution
From statement I alone, we get, Clues: 1. F scored more marks than W but scored less number of marks than B and C. 2. D, who is the second highest scorer, scored more number of marks than A and B. Inference: From clue 1, we get, C, B > F > E From clue 2, we get, _ > D > _ > _ > _ > _ The final arrangement is as follows: C > D > B/A > A/B > F > E Or C > D > B > F > A/E > E/A So, C is the highest scorer. From statement II alone, we get, Clues: 1. A scored more marks than W but scored less number of marks F and C. 2. B scored more number of marks than at least three students. Inference: From clue 1, we get, C, F > A > E From clue 2, we get B is either highest or second highest or third highest mark scorer. Therefore, 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.
