• A. statement I alone is sufficient to provide the answer.
• B. statement II alone is sufficient to provide the answer.
• C. both statements are required to provide the answer.
• D. neither statement I nor II is sufficient to provide the answer

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

both statements are required to provide the answer.

Answer 2

From statement I we find the positions of Shyam, Ram and Narender. So using it we cannot find the answer.
Statement II gives the positions of Ramesh in queue but we cannot find the answer using it alone.
Since both statements give the positions of all five persons and 1st person of the queue.
So, we can give the answer using both statements.
So the correct option is (C)
