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: I % C, C & D, D $ K, K # Z

    Conclusions: I. I & D                        II. D # Z

    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: I ≥ C, C > D, D = K, K ≤ Z Decoded conclusion I. I > D                             II. D ≤ Z Combined Inequalities: I ≥ C > D = K ≤ Z I ≥ C > D = K ≤ Z                 I > D. Hence conclusion I is true. I ≥ C > D = K ≤ Z                 D ≤ Z.     Hence conclusion II is true.
