Question

In these questions the symbols @, %, # ,+ and $ are used with different meanings as follows: ‘A @ B’ means ‘ A is not greater than B’. ‘A % B’ means ‘A is neither greater than nor equal to B’. ‘A # B’ means ‘A is not smaller than B’. ‘A + B’ means ‘A is neither smaller than nor equal to B’.   ‘A $ B’ means ‘A is neither greater than nor 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 and III given below them is/ are definitely true and mark your answer accordingly.

Statements:   A % C,     C #  B,     B $ H,     H @ E  

Conclusions:        I. B @ A                 II. B + A                III.B + E

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

Solution

Decoding: Statements:       A < C,    C ≥ B,      B = H,     H ≤ E Conclusions:        I. B ≤ A                  II. B > A                III.B > E A < C ≥ B = H ≤ E Conclusion I and Conclusion II  are complimentary pair. Either Conclusion  I or Conclusion II will follow.   A < C ≥ B = H ≤ E ∴ B ≤ E . Hence , Conclusion III will not follow.
