There are five crude oil refining companies in India namely, A, B, C, D, and E. Statements: I. The production of Company B is more than that of Company A but not more than that of Company E. II The production of Company C is more than the production of Company B but NOT as much as that of Company D. III. The production of E is NOT as much as the production of Company D. Which of these statements is/are sufficient to answer the question that the production of which of the following companies is the highest? Correct Answer All the statement (I), statement (II) and statement (III) together are sufficient
The logic is:
I. The production of Company B is more than that of Company A but not more than that of Company E → E > B > A (As there is no information about D & C answer cannot be determined by this statement only)
II. The production of Company C is more than the production Company B but not as much as that of Company D → D > C > B (As there is no information about E & A answer cannot be determined by this statement only)
III. The production of E is NOT as much as the production of Company D → D > E (As there is no information about B, C & A answer cannot be determined by this statement only)
On combining all the three statements:
|
Name of the companies in the decreasing order of the companies |
D |
C/E |
B |
A |
Hence, All the statement (I), statement (II) and statement (III) together are sufficient.
