Statements :
I. P is taller than D and N but not as tall as T.
II. R is taller than Q but not as tall as T.
III. Q is not taller than T and R.
- A Only I and II Correct
- B Only II and III
- C Only I and III
- D All I, II and III
- E Only I and either II or III
Correct Answer: Option A
From I, we have : P > D, P > N, T > P > i. e. T > P > D > N >
or T > P > N > D .......(i)
From II, we have : R > Q , T > R i. e. T > R > Q .........(ii)
From III, we have : T > Q, R > Q ............ (iii)
Clearly, from (i) and (ii), we conclude that T is taller than each one of P, N, D, R and Q. So, T is the tallest.
