    Among five friendsJ, K, L, M and N each of a different height, who is the second tallest?
    I. N is taller than M and K. K is shorter than M.
    II. L is taller than N. J is not the tallest.
    Give answer

    A) if the data in Statement I alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in Statement II alone are not sufficient to answer the question

    B) if the data in Statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in Statement I alone are not sufficient to answer the question

    C) if the data either in Statement I alone or Statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question

    D) if the data in both the Statements I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d]
    From Statement I, N > M > K                
    From Statement II, L > N                        
    From both the statements, L > N > M > K
    But height of J is not clear.
    Thus, second tallest friend cannot be determined.
    Hence, data neither in Statement I nor in Statement II are sufficient to answer the question.
