P, Q, R, S and T have different ages. T is elder than only one person. S is elder than P but younger than Q. R is elder than Q. Who is the youngest?
P
To determine who is the youngest among P, Q, R, S, and T based on the given information, let's analyze the clues step-by-step:
- T is elder than only one person. This means T is the second youngest.
- S is elder than P but younger than Q. Let's denote this as:
- P < S < Q
- R is elder than Q. So R is older than Q:
- Q < R
- Now, let’s rank based on the above conditions:
- Since T is elder than only one person, and P < S < Q < R, the possible placement of T is:
- P (Youngest) < T < S < Q < R
- Since T is elder than only one person, and P < S < Q < R, the possible placement of T is:
Thus, the youngest person is P.
Therefore, the correct answer is P.
