Direction: Refer to the following statements and answer the questions:
Seven student Priya, Ankit, Raman, Sunil, Tony, Deepak and Vicky take a series of tests. No two students get similar marks. Vicky always scores more than Priya. Priya always scores more than Ankit. Each time either Raman scores the highest and Tony gets the least, or alternatively Sunil scores the highest and Deepak or Ankit scores the least.

  1. If Sunil is ranked sixth and Ankit is ranked fifth, which of the following can be true?
    1. Vicky is ranked first or fourth
    2. Raman is ranked second or third
    3. Tony is ranked fourth or fifth
    4. Deepak is ranked third or fourth
Correct Option: D

Vicky > Priya
Priya > Ankit
One of them is true- Raman is highest or Tony is least or Sunil got highest and Deepak got least.
Now or each and every question we have different case-
Since Sunil got the sixth and Ankit got the fifth rank, hence we can conclude that Raman must have got the highest and Tony must have got the least rank. And the order of ranks of Vicky, Priya and Ankit must be Vicky > Priya > Ankit. Vicky must have got the second or third rank and accordingly Priya must have got the third or ourth rank. Deepak mlust have got any rank among two, three and four.
