Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In a cooking competition, chefs M, N, O, P, and Q are ranked based on their dishes. M is ranked higher than N but lower than O. P is ranked lower than M but higher than Q. What is the correct order from highest to lowest rank? (2023)
  • Step 1: Identify the rankings from the information given. M is ranked higher than N but lower than O. This means O > M > N.
  • Step 2: Next, we know that P is ranked lower than M but higher than Q. This means M > P > Q.
  • Step 3: Now we combine the two pieces of information. From Step 1, we have O > M > N, and from Step 2, we have M > P > Q.
  • Step 4: Since M is common in both rankings, we can combine them: O > M > P > Q and N is lower than M, so we add N after P.
  • Step 5: The final order from highest to lowest rank is O > M > N > P > Q.
