Question

Lal is taller than Nand and Jim is taller than Harry. Who among them is the tallest?

I. Jim is taller than Nand.

II. Lal is taller than Harry.

• A. If the data in statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement II alone is not sufficient to answer the question
• B. If the data in statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question
• C. If the data given in both statements I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question
• D. If the data in both statements I and II together are necessary to answer the question

Answer 1

The correct option is C

If the data given in both statements I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question

Given that, Lal $>$ Nand

Jim $>$ Harry

From Statement I, Jim $>$ Harry and Nand

Hence, I alone is insufficient.

From Statement II, Lal $>$ Harry and Nand

But again no comparison is given between Lal and Jim. Hence, II alone is insufficient.

It is very obvious from Statements l and II that they are together insufficient to answer the question.
