Answer-Seven students (P, Q, R, S, T, U and V) have different heights. The height of the tallest person is...

Q is shorter than only one person. Height of the tallest person is 180cm. P is taller than T and immediately shorter than S. R is shorter than T but taller than V. S is not the tallest in the group. Inferences From clue 1, we get Q is the 2nd tallest person. From clue 2, we get S P T From clue 3, we get T R V From clue 4, we get U Q S P T R V The final arrangement is as follows U Tallest - 180cm Q S P T R V Shortest If the sum of Us and Ss height is 345cm U 180cm S 345 - 180 165cm Since Q is between U 180cm and S 165cm, Qs possible height must be between 180 and 165. From the options, 170cm fits this criteria.
