    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: A @ B, B $ C, C & D, D % E

    Conclusions: I. B @ D                    II. E & A
    A If only conclusion I is true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B If only conclusion II is true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C If either conclusion I or II is true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D If neither conclusion I nor II is true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E If both conclusions I and II are true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Decoded statement: A < B, B = C, C > D, D ≥ E Decoded conclusion I. B < D                          II. E > A Combined Inequalities: A < B = C > D ≥ E A < B = C > D ≥ E                B > D. Hence conclusion I is not true. A < B = C > D ≥ E                No relationship can be established between E and A. Hence conclusion II is not true.
