Each problem consists of three statements. Based on the first two statements, the third statement may be true, false, or uncertain.
|
| 1. |
Tanya is older than Eric.
Cliff is older than Tanya.
Eric is older than Cliff.
If the first two statements are true, the third statement is |
| [A]. |
true | | [B]. |
false | | [C]. |
uncertain |
Answer: Option E
Explanation:
Because the first two statements are true, Eric is the youngest of the three, so the third statement must be false.

Hi Viewers,
To solve these kind of problems just make the given data into expressions.
Tanya is older than Eric ==> Tanya > Eric
Cliff is older than Tanya ==> Cliff > Tanya > Eric
Eric is older than Cliff : This is wrong, because from the above statement we can easily find that Eric is younger than Cliff and Tanya.
Therefore the answer is 'False' (Option B).
Hope this will help you. Have a nice day! |
