Statements:

F > H = K > L; D ≤ P < R = F

Conclusions:  

I. R < K

II. R > D

  1. AOption (a)

    Only I follows

  2. BOption (b)

    Only II follows

  3. COption (c)

    Either I or Ii follows

  4. DOption (d)

View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (b)B.

Only II follows

Why this answer is correct

Given statements: F > H = K > L; D ≤ P < R = F

By combining: D ≤ P < R = F > H = K > L

Conclusions:

I. R < K → False (as R = F > H = K, implies R > K)

II. R > D → True (as D ≤ P < R, implies R > D) 

Hence, only II follows.

  4. DOption (d)

    160

  5. EOption (e)

    None of these

View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (a)A.

80

Why this answer is correct

Six persons: G, H, I, J, K and L.

  1. J is heavier than only two persons.

J > >

  1. K is heavier than only L and lighter than J

J > K > L

  1. I’s weight is less than only H’s weight.

H > I

The arrangement is H > I > G > J > K > L.

  1. The third heaviest weight is 150 kgs and the fifth heaviest weight is 70 kgs.

G = 150 and K = 70

The final arrangement is

H > I > G > J > K > L.

Hence, J is in between G and K so it may be 80kgs.
