A # B means A is either equal to or smaller than B. A & B means A is smaller than B. A @ B means A is greater than B.

    Statements:  B & T, K ⋆ B, S ⋆ K

    Conclusions:      a) K ⋆ T                 b) S # T
    A If only conclusion a is answer Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B If only conclusion b is answer Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C If either conclusion a or b is answer Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D If neither conclusion a nor b is answer Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E If both conclusions a and b are true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    given statements: B & T, K ⋆ B, S ⋆ K After converting: B < T, K ≥ B, S ≥ K After combining: S ≥ K ≥ B < T Conclusion a → K ⋆ T → K ≥ T The relation between K and T in the statement S ≥ K ≥ B < T : K ≥ T As there is no relation between K and T. So, it is not true. Conclusion b → S # T → S ≤ T The relation between S and T in the statement S ≥ K ≥ B < T : S ≤ T. As there is no relation between S and T. So, it is also not true.
