The question given below is made up of two statements 1 and 2. You have to decide whether the information given in the statements is sufficient to answer the question. Read both the statements and select the correct answer. Question A, B, C, D and E are five friends. Who is the shortest among them? 1. A is taller than D and C. E is taller than A. 2. B is taller than all of them. Correct Answer The data in both statements 1 and 2 are not sufficient to answer the question.

Statement 1:  A is taller than D and C. E is taller than A.

E > A > D / C >

We can not determine who is the youngest person.

Statement 2: B is taller than all of them.

B > __ > __ > __ > __

We can not determine who is the youngest person.

By combining both of the statements:

B > E > A > D / C

Here who is youngest can not be determined.

In the statements, data related to the five person height is given which cannot help find the youngest member.

Therefore, the data in both statements 1 and 2 are not sufficient to answer the question.

Hence, ‘option 1’ is the correct answer.
