Question

    In these questions, symbols $, *, #, % and @ are used with different meaning as follows: ‘X $ Y’ means ‘X is not smaller than Y.’ ‘X * Y’ means ‘X’ is greater than Y’. ‘X # Y’ means ‘X’ is not greater than Y’. ‘X % Y’ means ‘X’ is smaller than Y’. ‘X @ Y’ means ‘X is neither smaller than nor greater than Y.’

    Statements: L $ W, W * H, H # T, P % T

    Conclusions:       I. T @ L                  II. H % L                                III. W @ T             IV. P # W
    A Only I is true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only II is true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only I and II is true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Only III is true. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    given statements:  L $ W, W * H, H # T, P % T After converting: L ≥ W , W > H, H ≤ T, P < T After combining: L ≥ W > H ≤ T > P Conclusion a → T @ L → T = L ( L ≥ W > H ≤ T ) , No relationship can be established between T and L so, it is not true. Conclusion b → H % L → H < L ( L ≥ W > H ) it is true.   Conclusion c → W @ T → W = T ( W > H ≤ T ) , No relationship can be established between W and T so, it is not true. Conclusion d → P # W → P ≤ W ( W > H ≤ T > P), No relationship can be established between P and W so, it is not true.
