The average of eight batsmen J, K, L, M, N, O, R, and T is compared. The number of batsman having average less than L are same as the number of batsman having average more than M. Average of T is less than M and more than K. Average of L is less than K. Average of two batsman lies between the average of M and L. Average of O is less than N and K both. Which of the following can be the correct sequence of their averages?
The average of eight batsmen J, K, L, M, N, O, R, and T is compared. The number of batsman having average less than L are same as the number of batsman having average more than M. Average of T is less than M and more than K. Average of L is less than K. Average of two batsman lies between the average of M and L. Average of O is less than N and K both. Which of the following can be the correct sequence of their averages? Correct Answer J >R > M > T > K > L > N > O
Average of eight batsmen: J, K, L, M, N, O, R and T.
1) Average of T is less than M and more than K.
M > T > K
2) Average of L is less than K.
K > L
3) The average of two batsmen lies between the average of M and L.
So, Combining these statements;
M > T > K > L
4) Average of O is less than N and K both.
N/K > O
5) The number of batsman having average less than L are same as the number of batsman having average more than M.
There are many cases for these conditions;
So, only option (4) satisfy all the statements:
J >R > M > T > K > L > N > O
Hence, option (4) is the correct answer.
