Question

NIMCET 2015 — Reasoning PYQ

NIMCET | Reasoning | 2015

Among five children A, B, C, D and E, B is taller than E but shorter than D. A is shorter than C but taller than D. If all the children stand in a line according to their heights, then who would be the fourth if counted from the tallest one?

Choose the correct answer:

Explanation

Step 1: Breakdown the given conditions

B is taller than E but shorter than D: This gives us the relationship: $D > B > E$
A is shorter than C but taller than D: This gives us the relationship: $C > A > D$

Step 2: Combine the relationships

Now, we connect both equations using the common child, D:

From (2), we have $C > A > D$
From (1), we know $D$ is taller than $B$ and $E$ ( $D > B > E$ )

Combining them into one single sequence from tallest to shortest:

C > A > D > B > E

Step 3: Identify the positions

Counting from the tallest (left to right):

1st: C (Tallest)
2nd: A
3rd: D
4th: B
5th: E (Shortest)

The person at the fourth position from the tallest is B.

Correct Option:

** (c) B**
