Solutions
Solution (1-5):
S1. Ans. (e)
Sol. From statements I and II together, we get P > Q > M > O and P > R
Hence, the data in both the statements I and II together are necessary to answer the question.
Hence, the data in both the statements I and II together are necessary to answer the question.
S4. Ans. (d)
Sol. From statements I and II together, we get that the place of R is not certain. So, the data in both the statements I and II together are not necessary to answer the question.
S5. Ans. (d)
Sol. From statements I and II together, there is lack of information. So, the data in both the statements I and II together are not necessary to answer the question.
S12. Ans. (d)
Sol. From statements I and II together, there is lack of information. So, the data in both the statements I and II together are not necessary to answer the question.
S13. Ans. (d)
Sol. From statements I and II together, there is lack of information. So, the data in both the statements I and II together are not necessary to answer the question.
S14. Ans. (a)
Sol. From statement I:
K > H > G > J > I/L > L/I
Hence, the data in the statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement II alone is not sufficient to answer the question.
