Question

    In the following questions, the symbols %, $, #, @ and & are used with the following meaning as illustrated below: ‘Y%Z’ means ‘Y is not smaller than Z’. ‘Y$Z’ means ‘Y is not greater than Z’. ‘Y#Z’ means ‘Y is neither greater than nor equal to Z’. ‘Y@Z’ means ‘Y is neither smaller than nor equal to Z’. ‘Y & Z’ means ‘ Y is neither greater than nor smaller than Z’.

    Statements:       Q % G & Z % G; G # C & E; E @ P # D

    Conclusions :      I. C @ P                 II. Q % P                  III. D @ G

    A None follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only I follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Only II & III follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Decoding: Statements: Q ≥ G = Z ≥ G < C = E > P < D Conclusions :      I. C > P       II. Q ≥ P               III. D > G Q ≥ G = Z ≥ G < C = E > P < D        C > P. Hence, conclusion I follows. Q ≥ G = Z ≥ G < C = E > P < D        No relationship can be established between Q and P hence, conclusion II will not follow. Q ≥ G = Z ≥ G < C = E > P < D        No relationship can be established between D and G hence, conclusion III will not follow.
