Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

Let.the first letter of the name of each girl denote her age.

From (i), we have : A >S.

From (ii) we have: K > M >A.

From (iiii, we have : K > S.

From (iv) we have: S < M.

Combining these, we get : K > M >A > S.

Since Gargi is the eldest, so we have : G > K > M > A > S.

Sanya is the youngest.
