Question

Shourya delivered parcels to five locations A, B, C, D, and E while prioritising delivery of heavier parcels first. Which location was delivered in the end?

**Statements:**
(I) The parcel for location C was heavier than all other parcels.
(II) The parcel for location D was lighter than the parcels assigned to locations B and A.

Accepted Answer

**Solution:**

1. From statement (I):
   - Parcel for location C is heavier than all other parcels.
   - So, C is delivered first (since heavier parcels are delivered first).

2. From statement (II):
   - Parcel for location D is lighter than parcels for B and A.
   - So, D is lighter than B and A, but no information about E or C relative to D.

3. Combining both statements:
   - C is the heaviest, delivered first.
   - D is lighter than B and A.
   - No information about E's parcel weight relative to others.

4. Since we do not know the relative weights of E and D or E and others, we cannot determine which parcel was delivered last (i.e., the lightest parcel).

**Answer:** Data in statements (I) and (II) together are not sufficient to answer the question.
