Correct Answer: Aarti and Sheela


Solution : Given:
(I) Aarti scored twice as much as Sheela scored.
Aarti = 2Sheela
(II) Sheela scored higher than Chinta. Chinta scored lower than Taran. Taran scored lower than lla.
Sheela > Chinta; IIa > Taran > Chinta
(III) Ila scored lower than Sheela but higher than Chinta.
Sheela > IIa > Taran > Chinta
But the Aarti scored twice as much as Sheela so the final arrangement is:
Aarti > Sheela > IIa > Taran > Chinta

So, Aarti and Sheela scored higher than IIa. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
