For Questions i-v:
According to the premises we can arrange ‘stronger than’ as > and ‘weaker than’ as <, so according to given facts Sohan > Rahim and Rahim < John.
Thus, i. (A), ii. (B), iii. (C), iv. (A), v. (C).
For Questions vi-viii:
As per given facts, we may say > means ‘older than’ and < means ‘younger than’. So X > Y > Z < W.
Thus, vi. (A), vii. (B), viii. (C).
For Questions ix- xii:
As per given facts, we may say > means ‘taller than’, < means ‘shorter than’ and = means ‘as tall as’. So, A > B, B < C, C = D.
Thus, ix. (A), x. (C), xi. (C), xii. (B)
