Question

Consider that:

1. A is taller than B. 
2. C is taller than A. 
3. D is taller than C. 
4. E is the tallest of all.

If they are made to sit in the above order of their height, who will occupy the mid position?

Accepted Answer

Let's establish the order of height from the statements:

1.  A is taller than B (A > B)
2.  C is taller than A (C > A > B)
3.  D is taller than C (D > C > A > B)
4.  E is the tallest of all (E > D > C > A > B)

The complete order from tallest to shortest is: E, D, C, A, B.

There are 5 people. When arranged in order of height, the mid position will be the 3rd person.

In the order E, D, C, A, B:
1st: E
2nd: D
3rd: C
4th: A
5th: B

Therefore, C occupies the mid position.

The final answer is C.
