Question

    In the questions given below, certain symbols are used with the following meanings: ‘A @ B’ means ‘A is greater than B’. ‘A * B’ means ‘A is either greater than or equal to B’. ‘A % B’ means ‘A is equal to B’. ‘A $ B’ means ‘A is either smaller than or equal to B’. ‘A < B’ means ‘A is smaller than B’. Now in each of the following questions assuming the given statements to be true, find out which of the conclusions I, II, III, IV given below them is/ are definitely true and mark your answer accordingly.

    Statements: A $ B C % D D @ E E * A

    Conclusions: I. A < C II. B $ D III. D % B IV. C @ E

    A None is true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only I and IV are true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only III is true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Only either III or IV is true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Decoding: Statements: A ≤ B C = D D> E E ≥ A Conclusions: I. A < C II. B ≤ D III. D = B IV. C > E C = D > E ≥ A C > A. Hence, conclusion I will follow. C = D > E ≥ A ≤ B No relationship can be established between B and D. Hence, conclusion II and conclusion III will not follow. C = D > E ≥ A C > E. Hence, conclusion IV will follow.
