Question 1
Five people H, G, J, F, and I are compared by Height and Age. i) F is older than J but shorter than G. ii) H is the tallest, but not the oldest. iii) I is older than H. iv) J is not the shortest, and G is the youngest. Who are the oldest and the shortest respectively?
Age: From (iii) J > F, and (ii) says F is not oldest, so J is oldest. Clue (iv) sets G as youngest. Also (i) gives I > H. A valid age order is I > H > F > J > G. Height: (ii) makes F tallest; (i) ensures G taller than I; (iv) H not shortest. A valid height order is H > J > G > F > I. Thus, oldest is I and shortest is I.
