Question

    In the following question assuming the given statements to be true, find which of the option among the given options is/are definitely true and then give your answers accordingly.

    Statements :

    A > B > C

    Y > B

    D > C > Z

    Conclusions :

    I. Z > D

    II. Y > A

    III. B > Z

    A Either II or III is correct. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Neither I nor II is correct Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only conclusion I is incorrect. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D All conclusions are correct. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Only conclusion I and II are correct. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Conclusions: I) Z > D → False  (as Y > B > C < D, Z < C → Z < C < D → Z < D. So, this conclusion is incorrect.) II) Y > A → False (as Y > B > C < D, A > B; thus, no clear relation between Y and A could be inferred from the given data.) III) B > Z → True  (as Y > B > C ; A > B; Z < C; thus, So, this conclusion is correct.) Hence, conclusion III is correct. In the decoded text, ">" represents the "greater than" symbol, and "→" represents the arrow symbol used to indicate logical implications.
