You are given a question and two statements numbered I and II. You have to decide whether the data in the statements are sufficient to answer the question. Question: Who among Mohan, Arun, Suresh, Ravi and Praveen came last for the birthday party? Statements: I. Mohan came after Arun but not after Praveen. II. Ravi came after Praveen but not after Suresh. Correct Answer The data given in both the statements I and II are necessary to answer the question.

The logic follows here is:

Statements:

I. Mohan came after Arun but not after Praveen.

Arun > Mohan > Praveen

Data in statement I is not sufficient to give the answer.

II. Ravi came after Praveen but not after Suresh.

Praveen > Ravi > Suresh

Data in statement II is not sufficient to give the answer.

After combining:

Arun > Mohan > Praveen > Ravi > Suresh

Therefore, Suresh came last for the birthday party.

Hence, the data given in both statements I and II are necessary to answer the question.
