Hi,

The answer is E) but I thought was C) - is there any number that can be L except for 5??


12. If J, K, L, M, and N and positive integers in ascending order, what is the value of L?
(1) The value of K is 3.
(2) The value of M is 7.

Since the numbers are arranged in an ascending order

After combining the statements,

L has three values viz. 4, 5 and 6
Hence E
