Statements: 1. X is 7 meters tall, Y is half as high and Z is 3 times the height of X. 2. P is taller than Z but shorter than A and B. Conclusions: I. B is the tallest of all. II. The average height of X, Y and Z is less than 10 meters. Find which of the given conclusions logically follows from the given statements. A. Only conclusion I follows. B. Only conclusion II follows. C. Both I and II follow. D. Neither I nor II follows.
Statements: 1. X is 7 meters tall, Y is half as high and Z is 3 times the height of X. 2. P is taller than Z but shorter than A and B. Conclusions: I. B is the tallest of all. II. The average height of X, Y and Z is less than 10 meters. Find which of the given conclusions logically follows from the given statements. A. Only conclusion I follows. B. Only conclusion II follows. C. Both I and II follow. D. Neither I nor II follows. Correct Answer D
The height of X is 7 metre;
The height of Y is 3.5 metre;
The height of Z is 21 metre;
A/B ˃ P ˃ Z ˃ X ˃ Y
Here we can’t decide that B is tallest or A.
The average height of X,Y,Z is 7 + 3.5 + 21 = 31.5/3 = 10.5 it is more than 10.
So both conclusions are wrong.
