Discussion
Given below is a question followed by two Statements numbered I and II, each containing some information. You have to decide which of the Statements is/are sufficient to answer the question. Read both the Statements and decide the appropriate answer.
Meena, Prabha, Anita and Kirti are four friends. Who among them is the heaviest ?
Statements :
I. Prabha is heavier than Meena and Kirti but lighter than Anita.
II. Meena is lighter than Prabha and Anita but heavier than Kirti.
Answer: D
The answer is Statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question while Statement II alone is not sufficient.
Statement I says Prabha is heavier than Meena and Kirti but lighter than Anita. So Anita is heavier than Prabha, who is heavier than the other two: Anita is the heaviest. Statement I alone answers the question.
Statement II says Meena is lighter than Prabha and Anita but heavier than Kirti. That leaves Prabha and Anita both above Meena, with no comparison between them, so the heaviest cannot be found from II alone.
