These questions consist of a question and two statements numbered I and II given below it. You have to decide whether the data given in the statements are sufficient to answer the question. Read both the statements and choose the most appropriate option.
Among T, V B, E and C who is the third from the top when arranged in the descending order of their weights?
I. B is heavier than T and C and is less heavier than V who is not the heaviest
II. C is heavier than only T.

Options

A. I alone is sufficient while II alone is not sufficient
B. II alone is sufficient while I alone is not sufficient
C. Either I or II is sufficient
D. Both I and II are sufficient

Answer

A

Explanation

From I, we have: `B gt T, B gt C, V gt B`. Thus, Vis heavier than each one of B, T and C. But V is not the heaviest. So, E is the heaviest.
Thus, we have the order. `Egt V gt B gt T gt E gt" or "E gt V gt B gt C gt T`. Clearly, B is third from the top.
