The second heaviest person is of 65 kg and the second lightest person is of 33 kg. After arranging the person in ascending order of their weight find the person who comes immediately after t?

Answer 1

S,t,P,u,r,q.p comes after t

Answer 2

Answer:

The people in ascending order of the weights is S T P U Q R

Accordingly, P comes immediately after T

Step-by-step explanation:

As it is given that Q is lighter than only R

=> There is no person heavier than R

=> Heaviest = R

and second heaviest = Q

The ascending order of the people = _ _ _ _ Q R

Then it is given that U is heavier than 3 persons

This is possible only when U is the third heaviest person.

Therefore, the order now becomes = _ _ _ U Q R

It is given that T is not the lightest

=> T cannot take up the first place.

and as given that T is lighter than P

Therefore, the order now becomes = _ T P U Q R

Now, the only person left is S

Therefore, the people in ascending order of the weights is S T P U Q R

Accordingly, P comes immediately after T
