Answer & solution

  • A

    Yogesh is older than Wahida.

  • Elle is older than Wahida.

  • C

    Elle may be younger than Wahida.

  • D

    None of the above

Solution

∴ Waheeda is twice older than Yogesh but Elle is three times older than Yogesh.

∴ Elle is the eldest.

Hence, option (b).
