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 Shortest person among the 5 friends?
- Anant
- Eshwar
- Bala
- David
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Since Charles is the 2nd shortest, and Bala is shorter than only one person, Bala is the second tallest. David is not the shortest. Thus, the only person left who could be the shortest is Eshwar.
Conclusion: The correct answer is Eshwar, as all other positions are accounted for by the other friends
