If they are arranged in the ascending order of heights,
who will be in the third position?

(a) Only (1) (b) Only (2) (c) Only (5) (d) either (1) or (4) (e) None Solution : We first find the sequence of heights by (3) we have :M < P by (5) we have : P < N Now, Rupa is tallest and kamini is second in height. So the sequence of heights is : M < P < N < K < R. Now, we determine the age sequence by (2) we have : K < R. by (3) we have : P < M. by (4) we have : R = M. by (5) we have : R < N. So the sequence of ages is:N < R = M < K < P or N < R = M < P < K. Answer for 6th question is (e),in the increasing order of heights, Neelam is in third position. Answer for 7th question is (e), in the descending order of ages, Neelam will be in fourth position (because Monika and Rupa both lie at third position). Answer for 8th question is (a), Only statement (1) is not necessary.
