Who is the tallest among six boys P, T, N, D, Q and R ?

Statements:

1. P is taller than D and N but not-as tall as T.

2. R is taller than Q but not as tall as T.

3. Q is not taller than T and R

Answer: A

From 1, we have: P > D, P > N, T > P i.e. T > P > D > N or T > P > N > D ...(i)

From 2, we have: R > Q, T > R i.e. T > R > Q ...(ii)

From 3, 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.
