A, B, C and D are four people, about whom it is known that A is taller than B, D is shorter than C, C is taller than A, B is shorter than D and D is taller than only one person.
Arrange them in the proper sequence starting from tallest to shortest:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) → (C), (A), (D), (B)
The clues are joined two at a time, each time keeping the order already found:
C is taller than A, and A is taller than B, so the order so far is C, A, B.
D is shorter than C, and B is shorter than D, so D comes somewhere below C and above B.
D is taller than only one person; that person is B, so A must be taller than D, and D is third.
