Question

Who among them scored highest in Maths?

• A. Amit
• B. Dinesh
• C. Bijay
• D. Ajit

Answer 1

The correct option is A

Amit

From the given data.
As Ajit and Dinesh belong to same group, their last statements cannot be simultaneously true.
Hence, their $2^{nd}$ statements must be true.
Similarly, Bijay and Amit's second statements are false.

The final table

$\begin{array}{cccc}& \text{Maths}& \text{Science}& \text{English}\\ 1^{st}& \text{Amit}& \text{Dinesh}& \text{Deepak}\\ 2^{nd}& \text{Dinesh}& \text{Bijay}& \text{Amit}\\ 3^{rd}& \text{Deepak}& \text{Ajit}& \text{Dinesh}\\ 4^{th}& \text{Ajit}& \text{Deepak}& \text{Bijay}\\ 5^{th}& \text{Bijay}& \text{Amit}& \text{Ajit}\end{array}$
