Anant is taller than 2 of his friends. Eshwar is not the tallest. Bala is shorter than only 1 person. David is not the shortest. Charles is the 2nd shortest. If all of them have different heights, then who is the tallest person among the 5 friends?
- Anant
- Eshwar
- Bala
- David
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
From the information, we know that Charles is the 2nd shortest and Bala is shorter than only one person, so Bala is the second tallest. Since Anant is taller than two people, and Eshwar is not the tallest, David must be the tallest. Therefore, David is the tallest among the five friends.
Conclusion: The correct answer is David, as he must be the tallest based on the elimination of other options
Top Questions on Logical and Analytical Reasoning Skills
- An organization allows its employees to work independently on consultancy projects but charges an overhead on the consulting fee.
The overhead is 20% of the consulting fee if the fee is up to ₹5,00,000.
For higher fees, the overhead is ₹1,00,000 plus 10% of the amount by which the fee exceeds ₹5,00,000.
