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: J % K, K & A, A $ L, L # B

    Conclusions: I. J & A                        II. A # B

    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: J ≥ K, K > A, A = L, L ≤ B Decoded conclusion I. J > A                            II. A ≤ B Combined Inequalities: J ≥ K > A = L ≤ B J ≥ K > A = L ≤ B                 J > A. Hence conclusion I is true. J ≥ K > A = L ≤ B                 A ≤ B.    Hence conclusion II is true.
