Question

    In the following questions, the symbols @, &, $, % and # are used with the following meaning as illustrated below: 'A $ B' means 'A is not greater than B'. 'A @ B' means 'A is neither smaller than nor equal to B'. 'A # B' means' A is not smaller than B'. 'A & B' means 'A is neither greater than nor equal to B'. 'A % B' means 'A is neither smaller than nor greater than B'. Now in each of the following questions assuming the given statements to be true, find which of the three conclusions I, II and III given below them is/are definitely true and give your answer accordingly.

    Statements: X & C, C % W, W $ S, S @ L

    Conclusions: I. L & C II. S # C III. W @ X

    A Only I and II are true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only I and III are true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only II and III are true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D All I, II and III are true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Decoded statement : X < C, C = W, W ≤ S , S > L Decoded conclusion : I. L < C II. S ≥ C III. W > X Combined Inequalities: X < C = W ≤ S > L X < C = W ≤ S > L No relationship can be established between C and L. Hence conclusion I is not true. X < C = W ≤ S > L C ≤ S. Hence conclusion II is true. X < C = W ≤ S > L X < W. Hence conclusion III is true.
