Correct Answer - Option 2 : Arsh
1. Five friends are taking part in a race.
2. Manu runs faster than Neeraj.
Manu > Neeraj
3. Arsh runs faster than Manu.
Arsh > Manu
4. Neeraj runs faster than Sonu but slower than Prashant.
Prashant > Neeraj > Sonu
5. Prashant is NOT as fast as Manu.
Manu > Prashant
Combining all the statements together, we get:
Arsh > Manu > Prashant > Neeraj > Sonu
So, Arsh is most likely to win the race.
Hence, ‘Arsh’ is the correct answer.
