Answer: Option A. -> Only I and II
From I, we have: P > D, P > N, T > P i.e. T > P > D > N or T > P > N > D ...(i)
From II, we have: R > Q, T > R i.e. T > R > Q ...(ii)
From III, we have: T > Q, R > Q ...(iii)
Clearly, from (i) and (ii), we conclude that T is taller than each one of P, N, D, R and Q. So, T is the tallest.

Answer: Option D. -> Neither I nor II is sufficient
From I, we have the order : S, -, -, -, Q. From II, we have the order : R, T. Combining the above two, we get two possible orders : S, R, T, P, Q or S, P, R, T, Q. Thus, either T or R is in the middle.

Answer: Option E. -> Both I and II are sufficient
From I, we find that number of speakers who attended programme =18-(1/6) of 18 = 15.
From II, we find that one-third of 15 i.e. 5 speakers gave 2 speeches each, while each of the remaining 10 speakers delivered only one speech.
So, total number of speeches delivered = (5 x 2 + 10 x 1) = 20.
