Question
Among five friends, Charlie is taller than Peter but shorter than at least 3 more friends. Lisbon is the tallest. Arya is not the third shortest. Baelish is taller than Peter. Answer the following questions:What is Baelish’s rank in the sequence from the tallest to the shortest?
Solution
To answer this question, we need to first establish the height order of the friends based on the information given.
- Lisbon is the tallest.
- Charlie is taller than Peter but shorter than at least 3 friends. This means Charlie can be the 4th or 5th tallest.
- Arya is not the third shortest, meaning Arya can't be the 3rd, 4th, or 5th tallest. So Arya must be either the 1st or 2nd tallest. But since Lisbon is the tallest, Arya must be the 2nd tallest.
- Baelish is taller than Peter. Since Peter is the shortest (5th tallest), Baelish can be the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th tallest. But Arya is the 2nd tallest, so Baelish can be either the 3rd or 4th tallest. However, since Charlie can only be the 4th or 5th tallest, Baelish must be the 3rd tallest.
So, Baelish's rank in the sequence from the tallest to the shortest is 3rd.
