Question 1

 A

Arjun.

 B

Jaspreet.

 C

 D

Varma.

Soln.
Ans: d

The facts are:

  1. A = S.
  2. R < S.
  3. V < R < J.
  4. S < J.

By examining the left side, we can see that the answer is one of R, V or S. But if we examine the right sides, S and R appear there also. So we can strike them off. We are left with V for Varma as the answer.


Question 2

Veerpal is taller than Karan but shorter than Hamesh. Hamesh is taller than Rajan but shorter than Gurpreet. If Karan is taller than Rajan. Who is the tallest among all?

 A

Gurpreet.

 B

Hamesh.

 C

Karan.

 D

Verpal.

Soln.
Ans: c

Try to arrange the items in a mathematical increasing or decreasing order. Use abbreviations to make things simpler. If two names begin with same letter, make the abbreviation of two characters.

Facts given are:

  1. K < V < H.
  2. R < H < G.
  3. R < K.

In all the three facts H, G and K appear on the right. So the tallest is either of them. The first fact defeats K, the second fact defeats H. So we are left with K as the answer.


Question 3

Vikas is taller than Rajat but shorter than Anil. Jaswant is taller than Anil. Geeta is taller than Vikas. Rajat is shorter than Geeta. Who is the shortest in the group?

 A

Geeta.

 B

Rajat.

 C

Vikas.

 D

Anil.

Soln.
Ans: b

Facts are:

  1. R < V < A.
  2. A < J.
  3. V < G.
  4. R < G.

By inspecting the left hand sides above, we can shortlist R, A and V as answer. A simple look at the first fact shows that R for Rajat is the answer.


Question 4

 A

Neetu is more beautiful than Lovely.

 B

Lovely is more beautiful than Neetu.

 C

Neetu is not more beautiful than Seeta.

 D

Seeta is the most beautiful.

Soln.
Ans: a

Arrange in order first. Use abbreviations like I have done -

L < S < N.


Question 5

Gurleen is taller than Sham but not as tall as Dimpy. Dimpy and Ridham are of same height. Gurleen is shorter then Parveen. Who is the shortest in all?

 A

Gurleen.

 B

Sham.

 C

Dimpy.

 D

Ridham.

Soln.
Ans: b

Facts are:

  1. S < G < D.
  2. D = R.
  3. G < P.

By inspection, S and G are on the left side, so we can shortlist them as possible answer. But by the first fact, S is defeated by G. So S for Sham is the shortest.
