In an examination Raja got more marks than Mohit but not as many as Minal. Minal got more marks than Suresh and Rupali. Suresh got less marks than Mohit but his marks are not the lowest in the group. Who is second in the descending order of marks ?

Options:
A .  Minal
B .  Rupali
C .  Raja
D .  None
Answer: Option C

Answer(C) Minal > Raja > Mohit > Suresh > Rupali

Given information:

Raja > Mohit

Minal > Raja

Minal > Suresh

Rupali < Minal

Suresh < Mohit

Suresh is not the lowest in the group.

To find out who is second in the descending order of marks, we need to analyze the given information and compare the marks obtained by each person. Let's start with the given information and create a table to make it easy to compare:

Person Marks

Minal 1

Raja 2

Mohit 3

Suresh 4

Rupali 5

Minal got more marks than Suresh and Rupali, so she has the highest marks.

Rupali got less marks than Minal, so she has the lowest marks.

Suresh got less marks than Mohit, so Mohit has at least 4 marks.

Suresh is not the lowest in the group, so he must have more marks than Rupali.

Using the given information and the table, we can infer the following:

Minal > Raja > Mohit > Suresh > Rupali

Therefore, Raja is second in the descending order of marks, making option C the correct answer.

Definitions and formulas:

Descending order: Arranging numbers from highest to lowest.

Inference: A conclusion drawn from given information or premises.
