Five boxes P, Q, R, S and T are stacked one above another. Which box is at the very top? Statement I: R is immediately above S, and Q is somewhere below S. Statement II: P is above all the other boxes, and Q is at the very bottom. Which statement is sufficient to answer?

Question

Accepted Answer

Statement II alone is sufficient but Statement I alone is not. I only fixes a relative R–S–Q order and leaves P and T unplaced, so the top box is uncertain. II says P is above all others, so P is at the top.
