Question 1
Five people F, J, G, H, and I are compared by Height and Age. i) H is older than G but shorter than J. ii) F is the tallest, but not the oldest. iii) I is older than F. iv) G is not the shortest, and J 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 > F > H > G > J. Height: (ii) makes F tallest; (i) ensures G taller than I; (iv) H not shortest. A valid height order is F > G > J > H > I. Thus, oldest is I and shortest is I.
