Question

The age of Amit is same as Sumit because they are twins, Richa is younger than Sumit, Richa is younger than Jyotsana but elder than Saurabh, Sumit is younger than Jyotsana. Who is the eldest among them?

The correct answer is

Jyotsana

To solve the question, we need to arrange the individuals based on their ages according to the given information:

  1. Amit and Sumit are twins, which means their ages are the same.
  2. Richa is younger than Sumit.
  3. Richa is younger than Jyotsana but elder than Saurabh.
  4. Sumit is younger than Jyotsana.

Let's analyze and arrange them using the given information:

  1. Since Richa is younger than both Sumit and Jyotsana, the order so far is: Richa < Sumit, Jyotsana.
  2. But Richa is also older than Saurabh, placing Saurabh as the youngest: Saurabh < Richa < Sumit, Jyotsana.
  3. By the information given, Sumit is younger than Jyotsana. Therefore, Jyotsana is elder than Sumit.

Combining all these points, we get the following order of ages from youngest to eldest:

  • Saurabh
  • Richa
  • Sumit = Amit
  • Jyotsana

Thus, the eldest of them all is Jyotsana.

This conclusion effectively uses the given data and logically arranges them by their ages.
