    Question

    In the following question, the symbols $, @, & , % and # are used with the following meanings as illustrated below: ‘P $ Q’ means ‘P is neither greater than nor smaller to Q’  ‘P @ Q’ means ‘P is neither greater than nor equal to Q ‘P & Q’ means ‘P is neither smaller than nor equal to Q ‘P % Q’ means ‘P is not smaller than Q’   ‘P # Q’ means ‘P is not greater than Q Now, in each of the following question assuming the given statement to be true, find which of the two conclusions I and II given below them is / are definitely true. Give answer.

    Statements: J @ K, K $ L, L & M, M % N

    Conclusions: I. K @ M                  II. N & J
    A If only conclusion I follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B If only conclusion II follows. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C If either conclusion I or conclusion II follows. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D If neither conclusion I nor conclusion II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E If both conclusion I and conclusion II follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Decoded statement: J < K, K = L, L > M, M ≥ N Decoded conclusion M. K < M                       II. N > J Combined Inequalities: J < K = L > M ≥ N J < K = L > M ≥ N               K > M. Hence conclusion M is not true. J < K = L > M ≥ N               No relationship can be established between N and J. Hence conclusion II is not true.
