    Question

    Each of the questions given below consists of a question and two statements numbered I and II given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statements are sufficient to answer the question or not. Read both the statements and answer the question.

    Six persons M, N, Q, W, T and Y are arranged according to their height. Find the second shortest person.

    I) M is taller than T but shorter than W. N is taller than Q and Y. Only two persons are shorter than T. W is not the tallest. Q is not the shortest.

    II) More than two persons are taller than Q. W is taller than M and T. Y is shorter than Q. N is taller than M.

    A If the data in statement I alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement II alone are not sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B If the data in statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement I alone are not sufficient to answer the question Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C If the data either in statement I alone or in statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D If the data in both statement I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E If the data in both statement I and II together are necessary to answer the question Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    We will analyse both these statements separately. I. As per this statement arrangement will look like this: N>W>M>T>Q>Y So from this arrangement we can conclude that Q is the second shortest person. II. As per this statement, we can conclude that: W>M & T Q>Y N>M From this arrangement we can conclude that who is the second shortest person. So this option will get eliminated individually
