.Two Statements S 1 and S2 are given below with regard to four numbers P, Q, R and S followed by a Question: S1: R is greater-than P as well as Q. S2: S is not the largest one. Among four numbers P, Q, R and S which one is the largest? Which one of the following is correct in respect of the above Statements and the Question?

Options

  1. a.

    S1 alone is sufficient to answer the Question.

  2. b.

    S2 alone is sufficient to answer the Question.

  3. c.

    S1 and S2 together are sufficient to answer the Question, but neither S1 alone nor S2 alone is sufficient to answer the Question.

    Correct answer
  4. d.

    S1 and s2 together are not sufficient to answer the Question.

Explanation

The question asks, "Among four numbers P, Q, R, and S, which one is LARGEST?" Statement 1 alone is not sufficient to answer the question as it does not provide any information about S. Statement 2 alone cannot be sufficient because it only specifies that S is not the largest, but it does not provide any indication about the relative sizes of R, P, and Q. By combining Statements 1 and 2, we know that S cannot be the largest. However, Statement 2 indicates that R is greater than both P and Q. Therefore, R must be the largest among P, Q, and R. Hence, the correct answer is option (c).
