Question

The blue thread is longer than the yellow thread. The red thread is shorter than the blue thread but longer than the yellow thread. How will you arrange the threads in decreasing order of length?

• A. Red, blue, yellow
• B. Blue, red, yellow
• C. Yellow, blue, red
• D. Yellow, red, blue

Answer 1

The correct option is B Blue, red, yellow

The blue thread is longer than both the yellow and the red thread. The yellow thread is shorter than both the red and blue threads.
So, the blue thread is the longest, and yellow is the shortest in the group.
Therefore, we can arrange the threads in decreasing order of length as—blue, red, yellow.


Hence, Option A is correct.
