Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
Birth years: 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005
-
Avi is the oldest ⇒ 2001
-
Asif was born in a leap year ⇒ 2004
-
Anu was neither born in 2002 nor 2005.
-
2001 is already Avi.
-
2004 is Asif.
-
So, Anu = 2003.
-
-
Remaining years: 2002 and 2005 for Ani and Asa.
-
Ani is younger than Asa.
-
Younger means born later.
-
Therefore, Ani = 2005 and Asa = 2002.
-
Final Arrangement:
-
Avi → 2001
-
Asa → 2002
-
Anu → 2003
-
Asif → 2004
-
Ani → 2005
