Solution
L is smaller than only statue M, => M is the tallest statue and L is the second tallest.

Statue O is smaller than statue N and Statue O is longer than statue P, => N > O > P

Combining above statements, we get :
$\therefore$ M > L > N > O > P

Height of M = 20 feet and O = 11 feet
N is the third tallest statue, height of N is 19 > N > 11 ($\because$ L can be 19 feet)
The only option that lies in this range is 13 feet
=> Ans - (A)
