Correct Answer: D
Solution : Given: D is 10 cm; A = D/2; C = A/2; E = C + 2, B = A + E
Length of D = 10 Length of A = D/2 ⇒ A = 10 ÷ 5 = 2 Length of C = A/2 ⇒ C = 2 ÷ 2 = 1 Length of E = C + 2 = 1 + 2 = 3 Length of B = A + E = 2 + 3 = 5
Thus, the descending order of individuals based on their length is→D > B > E > A > C
So, D is the longest pencil. Hence, the second option is correct.
