If Football is lighter than Tennis-ball and Basketball is heavier than Tennisball, but lighter than hand-ball, then which is the correct ascending order of balls in terms of weight ?

  • A.Football, Tennisball, Basket-ball, Handball
  • B.Basketball, Handball, Tennis-ball, Football
  • C.Football, Tennisball, Handball, Basketball
  • D.Tennisball, Football, Basket-ball, Handball

Answer: A

The ascending order is Football, Tennisball, Basket-ball, Handball.

The statements give three comparisons: football is lighter than tennis-ball; basketball is heavier than tennis-ball; and basketball is lighter than handball. Putting them together from lightest to heaviest:

Football, then Tennisball, then Basketball, then Handball.

The order beginning with Basketball reverses most of these facts. The order ending with Basketball after Handball contradicts 'basketball is lighter than handball'. The order beginning with Tennisball contradicts 'football is lighter than tennis-ball'.
