Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In a group of 5 friends, A is taller than B but shorter than C. D is shorter than A but taller than E. Who is the tallest? (2023)
  • Step 1: Identify the relationships between the heights of the friends based on the information given.
  • Step 2: A is taller than B, so we write: A > B.
  • Step 3: A is shorter than C, so we write: C > A.
  • Step 4: From Steps 2 and 3, we can combine them to say: C > A > B.
  • Step 5: D is shorter than A, so we write: A > D.
  • Step 6: D is taller than E, so we write: D > E.
  • Step 7: Now we combine all the information: C > A > D > E and A > B.
  • Step 8: From the combined information, we see that C is the tallest among all.
