Question

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

    Statements:       K @ L; M & O, N % L, K $ O

    Conclusions:     

    I. O @ L

    II. M @ L             

    III. K # N

    A If only conclusion I is true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B If only conclusion II is true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C If both conclusions I and II are true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D If only III is true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E If both conclusions II and III are true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    given statements: K @ L; M & O, N % L, K $ O After converting: K < L, M > O, N ≤ L , K ≥ O After combining: M > O ≤ K < L ≥ N Conclusion a → O @ L → O < L, It is true as M > O ≤ K < L ≥ N. Conclusion b → M @ L → M < L There is no relation between M and L in the statement M > O ≤ K < L ≥ N. So, it is not true.   Conclusion c → K # N → K = N There is no relation between K and N in the statement M > O ≤ K < L ≥ N. So, it is not true.
