• @MANOJ KUMAR JHA @KHUSHBOO @RAJAT here problem is that each person gives vote to a different person except himself. Oldest one is alresdy included among the 4 oldest. So now what are u thinking nw oldest of them
  x6 - 3 votes
  x6 gives give vote to other 2nd oldest that is x5 so x5 has 1 vote so nw if first two will two vote to x5 then the match is a draw..

• ANSWER==> C
  "each person vote to a different person"
  now form the statement 1. oldest person get 3 votes because he can't vote himself according to the question. so we can't say the name of the winner from here.
  now consider statement 2. oldest person get 2 votes from the youngest 2. again this statement can't declare the name of the winner.
  
  but if we consider both of the statement then the oldest one gets 5 vote(3 votes from the oldest + 2 votes from the youngest). now it is very clear that oldest one wins.

• what is the answer mind clearly .. and post your answers.. match is draw or x6 will win the match. Because if x6 get 3 votes he cannot get 4 vote because oldest 4 votes to the oldest but oldest is already in them so he can get 3 votes only x6 vote to second oldest which is x5 can anyone who have given the test exactly remenber the question?????

  Let x1,x2,x3,x4,x5,x6 are 6 persons arranged in assending order i.e. x1 is youngest and x6 is oldest
  CASE1-oldest four give vote to the oldest of them
  i.e x6 gets 4 vote.
  Remaing votes are 2
  so x6 is winner.
  statement 1 is sufficient to answer the question.
  CASE2- youngest 2 give their votes to eldest person
  so x1 and x2 gives vote to x6
  Remaining votes are 4
  Among these 4 votes anyone can get any no of votes
  hence this option is not sufficient to answer who is winner
  
  Hence ans:-A

• 3.both combine can solve
  
  i.e in 1st case the oldest one can get max 3 votes coz he cannt vote to himself
  and there is least probability of getting draw i.e remaining 3votes we cannt predict in 1st case

• statement 1&2 combined can be used to solve the problem .
  since the 4 older ones would vote for the oldest hence the oldest would get 3 votes, plus the youngest ones would also vote for the eldest hence the oldest would get 5 vote in total , which the maximum one can get.

• A ,becoz 4 votes will make him the winner
• 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(4)
• the right answer is A as the first one says the 4 oldest person give vote to the oldest of them thus the oldest person gets 4 votes which is sufficient to make him the winner,
  where as statement 2 says the youngest 2 gives vote to the eldest of them which leaves 4 vote unused or they can go in anyones favor making option A the correct answer
  if one can give the other cannot

• x6 gets 3 votes because he can't vote him self so the maximum possible of votes to other persons is 2 (self vote is not possible according to question) so ans a is sufficent we consider option b eldest got 2 votes so remaining persons has a chance to get 3 votes option b is sufficent so ans is a
