Question

If they are arranged in the descending order of height, who will be in third position ?

• A. Monika
• B. Rupa
• C. Monika or Rupa
• D. Data inadequate

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

Data inadequate

We first find the sequence of heights.
By (iii), we have Monika $<$ Pooja.
By (iv), we have Monika $<$ Rupa.

By (v), we have Pooja $<$ Neelam.

and by (ii) Kamini is at second position.

Therefore, concluding above finding, we get three outcomes, which satisfies these.

1) Neelam $>$ Kamini $>$ Rupa $>$ Pooja $>$ Monika

2) Neelam $>$ Kamini $>$ Pooja $>$ Rupa $>$ Monika

3) Rupa $>$ Kamini $>$ Neelam $>$ Pooja $>$ Monika

Therefore, Data is inadequate, as we are not able to conclude that who is in third position, among Rupa, Pooja and Neelam
