Question

Ansh is taller than Akshita but shorter than Sharad. Akshita is shorter than Sharad but taller than Sneha. Who is the tallest one?

• A. Sharad
• B. Akshita
• C. Sneha
• D. Ansh

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

To determine the tallest person in this group, we need to evaluate the given height comparisons:

1. Ansh is taller than Akshita but shorter than Sharad.
2. Akshita is shorter than Sharad but taller than Sneha. 

From the first statement, we know Ansh is shorter than Sharad, indicating Sharad is taller than Ansh. Thus, Sharad > Ansh.

From the second statement, Akshita is shorter than Sharad and taller than Sneha. This means Sharad > Akshita > Sneha.

Combining both pieces of information, we have:

• Sharad > Ansh (from statement 1)
• Sharad > Akshita (from statement 2)
• Akshita > Sneha (from statement 2)

Based on these comparisons, Sharad is taller than Ansh and Akshita. Akshita is not taller than Sharad, and Ansh is shorter than Sharad. Therefore, the sequence of their heights from tallest to shortest is: Sharad, followed by either Ansh or Akshita, then Sneha.

Therefore, the tallest one is Sharad.
