7. Brett is taller than Shannon who is taller than Rene. Brett is also taller than Mel. Who is the shortest?

Answer: Not enough info

Brett is definitely the tallest, but either Rene or Mel could be second. If Rene was taller than Mel then Mel would be the shortest, but if that was reversed, Rene would be shortest. If Mel was said to be taller than Shannon then that would make Rene the shortest aswell.

8. Sophie is shorter than Harry. Will is shorter than Mike who is shorter than Harry. Harry and Will are shorter than Fiona. Who is the tallest?

Answer: Fiona

We definitely know that Fiona is the tallest, but there is not enough info to tell us who is the shortest. You may have thought that Mike is tallest but Harry is shorter than Fiona, and Mike is shorter than Harry so he can't be.

9. Tom is shorter than Matt and Tamara. Matt is shorter than Ben. Tamara is taller than Ben. Who is the tallest?

Answer: Tamara

Tallest to shortest - Tamara, Ben, Matt, Tom. I may have even confused you by saying that Tom is shorter than both Matt and TAMARA. Maybe too much info.

10. Jen is taller than Sue who is taller than Dick. Alan is taller than Dick. Jen and Sue are shorter than Alan. Betty is shorter than Dick. Who is the tallest?

Answer: Alan

From tallest to shortest - Alan, Jen, Sue, Dick, Betty. Even without mentioning Betty it would have been exactly the same.
