You are given a question and some statements. Decide which of the statements are sufficient to answer the question. Question: Four children A, B, C, and D live in the same colony. Who is the heaviest among them? Statements: 1. A is heavier than C and D. 2. D is the lightest among them. 3. B is heavier than A. Correct Answer Statements 1, 2 and 3 all together are sufficient.
1. A is heavier than C and D.
A > C and D
- Here, there is no information given about the weight of B. Therefore, statement 1 alone is not sufficient.
2. D is the lightest among them
- No information is given about the weight of A, B, and C. Therefore, statement 2 alone is not sufficient.
3. B is heavier than A.
B > A
- No information is given about the weight of C and D. Therefore, statement 3 alone is not sufficient.
- From statements 1, 2, and 3:-
B > A > C > D, B is the heaviest.
- Here, statements 1, 2 and 3 are sufficient.
Hence, "option 4" is the correct answer.
