Among five boxes of different weights, which box is the heaviest? Statement I: Box A is heavier than box B and box C. Statement II: Box D is heavier than A but lighter than box E. Which statement(s) are sufficient to answer?

Accepted Answer

Both statements together are needed (neither alone is sufficient). I places A above B and C only; II places E above D above A. Together E > D > A > B, C, so E is heaviest.
