Five parcels G, H, J, K and M have different weights. Parcel J is heavier than K but lighter than M. Parcel H is lighter than K. Parcel G is heavier than M. Which parcel is the second lightest?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) → K
Join the comparisons into one chain from the heaviest to the lightest, then count from the lightest end.
J is heavier than K but lighter than M: M > J > K
H is lighter than K: M > J > K > H
G is heavier than M: G > M > J > K > H
From the lightest end: H is the lightest and K is the second lightest
