There are five friends P, Q, R, S and T. S is shorter than T but taller than P. R is the tallest. Q is a little shorter than T but little taller than S. If they stand in the order of their heights who will be the shortest? Correct Answer P

The logic follows here is:

There are five friends P, Q, R, S, and T.

1) S is shorter than T but taller than P

⇒ T > S > P

2) Q is a little shorter than T but a little taller than S

⇒ T > Q > S > P

3) R is the tallest

⇒ R > T > Q > S > P

Therefore, the correct order of five friends according to their height is 

⇒ R > T > Q > S > P

From the above arrangement, it is clear that 'P' is the shortest among all.

Hence, the correct answer is P.
