Answer:

1. C)Unknown

2. C)Unknown

Explanation:

The company wants to disengage staff based on seniority but does not state of it is the highest ranking or lowest ranking that will go

So if we assume the two lowest ranking staff are to be let go.

From the scenario above Fred is more senior than Cheryl and Sue, so he must be 1st or 2nd.

To determine if Mike is to be terminated, he is senior to Cheryl. If Cheryl is 4th then Mike can be 3rd and will go. If Cheryl is 3rd then Mike can be 1st or 2nd and will stay. There is no way to determine Mike's rank from the data given.

To determine if Sue will go, Fred is more senior to Sue. So if Fred is 1st Sue can be 2nd and stay. However Sue can be 3rd or even 4th and still satisfy the conditions. So in this case also we cannot determine if Sue will be laid off with the data given.
