Directions (3 – 4): Each of the questions below consists of a question and two statements numbered I and II are given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statements are sufficient to answer the question.
Read both statements and
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.

3) Who among P, Q, R, S and T is the shortest?
I. R, though not the shortest, is shorter than only Q.
II. S, though not as tall as P, is not the shortest.

From statement II ─> P > S > _ > _ > _ or _ > P > S > _ > _ or _> _ > P > S > _ .
From both the statements I & II ─> Q > R > P > S > _. ─> Q >R > P > S > T. So, T is the shortest.
4) Who among M, N, O, P and Q is the youngest?
I. N, the second youngest, is younger than Q, O and M.
II. O, the second oldest, is older than N.
