There are six persons – C, D, E, X, Y, and Z, each of different ages. Only one person is younger than Y. X is older than E but younger than D. E is older than Y. Neither D nor C is the eldest. How many people are older than Z? Correct Answer Zero

Given that:-

Only one person is younger than Y.

  • Y > _ .

X is older than E but younger than D.

  • D > X > E

E is older than Y.

  • E > Y

Neither D nor C is the eldest.

  • Z > D > X > E > Y > C
  • Thus, no one is older than Z.

Hence, "option 2" is the correct answer.
