  1. Frank

  2. Ralph

  3. Impossible To Tell

  4. John


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Let's reevaluate the given information:

Frank is taller than John. Ralph is taller than Frank. Since Ralph is taller than Frank and Frank is taller than John, we can infer that Ralph is also taller than John. Therefore, Ralph is the tallest, while John remains the shortest among the three individuals.

Hence, the correct answer is option D: John.

  1. 46

  2. 50

  3. 48

  4. 52


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

To determine the total number of legs, we need to multiply the number of each animal by the number of legs each animal has, and then add them all together.

Given that:

  • Each horse has 4 legs
  • Each person has 2 legs
  • Each dog has 4 legs
  • Each chicken has 2 legs

We can calculate the total number of legs as follows:

Number of horse legs = 5 horses * 4 legs per horse = 20 legs Number of people legs = 2 people * 2 legs per person = 4 legs Number of dog legs = 3 dogs * 4 legs per dog = 12 legs Number of chicken legs = 7 chickens * 2 legs per chicken = 14 legs

Total number of legs = 20 + 4 + 12 + 14 = 50 legs

Therefore, the correct answer is B. 50.
