There are six friends A, B, C, D, E and F are of different ages. A is older than only one friend. C is older than F and A. E is older than C and A. B is older than C and only younger than E. D is not the youngest one and younger than C. How many friends are younger than B? Correct Answer 4
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 4
i) Here, A is older than only one friend.
- > - > - > - > A >-
ii) B is older than C and only younger than E i.e.
E > B > - > - > A >-
iii) C is older than F and A means C > F/A.
iv) E is older than C and A means E > C/A.
so from iii and iv, the order is E > C > F/A.
D is not the youngest one and younger than C means D can’t be the last one so we can put F as the youngest one.
The final order would be E>B>C>D>A>F.
So, from the given order, 4 persons are younger than B.
Hence, the correct answer is 4.
