It can be answered from first two statements and third statement is of no use because we dont need to tell who is the shortest

Question:
DIRECTIONS: Each of the following below consists of a question and three statements numbered I, II and III given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statement are sufficient to answer the question.

Who among P, Q, R, S, T and U each having a different height, is the tallest?


I. Q is taller than P, but shorter than T.

II. Only two of them are shorter than R.

III. S is taller than only U.

Options:
A) I and II
B) I and III
C) II and III
D) All I, II and III are required to answer the question
E) All I, II and III are not sufficient to answer the question.
Solution:

Ans: (d) 

From I, T> Q >P 

From II, _ > _> _>R>_>_ 

From III, _>_>_>_>S>U 

From all the three statements  T>Q>P>R>S>U 

Hence, T is the tallest among them.
