Question

    In the question, assuming the given statements to be true, find which of the conclusion (s) among given three conclusions is/are definitely true and then give your answer accordingly. 'A # B' means 'A is greater than B', 'A @ B' means 'A is smaller than B', 'A $ B' means 'A is not smaller than B', 'A % B' means 'A is not greater than B', 'A & B' means 'A is neither greater than nor smaller than B'.

    Statements: U & K # X % I % W; T # M $ W; T @ N @ S

    Conclusions: I. X @ M II. K $ S III. N # I
    A Only conclusion I is true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only conclusions I and III are true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only conclusions II and III are true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Only conclusion III is true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E All three conclusions are true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Statements: U & K # X % I % W; T # M $ W; T @ N @ S Decoded statement: U = K > X ≤ I ≤ W; T > M ≥ W; T < N < S Combined Inequalities: U = K > X ≤ I ≤ W ≤ M < T < N < S Conclusions: I. X @ M means [X < M]: False [As, X ≤ I ≤ W ≤ M, so, X ≤ M] II. K $ S means [K ≥ S]: False [As, K > X ≤ I ≤ W ≤ M < T < N < S, so, no direct relation between P and H] III. N # I means [N > I]: True [As, I ≤ W ≤ M < T < N, so, N > I]
