Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In a debate competition, the speakers A, B, C, D, and E are ranked based on their performance. A is ranked higher than B but lower than C. D is ranked lower than E but higher than A. What is the correct order from highest to lowest rank?
  • Step 1: Identify the rankings from the statements given. A is ranked higher than B but lower than C, which means C > A > B.
  • Step 2: Next, analyze the second part. D is ranked lower than E but higher than A, which means E > D > A.
  • Step 3: Combine the two sets of rankings. From Step 1, we have C > A > B, and from Step 2, we have E > D > A.
  • Step 4: Since A is common in both rankings, we can place it in the correct order. We know E is higher than D, and D is higher than A.
  • Step 5: Now, we can combine everything: C is the highest, followed by E, then D, then A, and finally B. So the final order is C, E, D, A, B.
