Question

    Statements: M > N > P ; P = Q ; N < R

    >Conclusions: I. Q < N II. P < M III. M > R In the following question assuming the given statements to be true, find which of the option among the given options is/are definitely true and then give your answers accordingly.
    A Either II or III is correct. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only conclusion III is incorrect. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Neither II nor III are correct. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D All conclusions are correct. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Only conclusion II is correct. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Given statements: M > N > P ; P = Q ; N < R Conclusions: I. Q < N → True ( as Q = P < N < M → thus Q < N ) II. P < M → True (as Q = P < N < M → thus P < M ) III. M > R → False (as Q = P < N < M ; N < R → thus the clear relation between M and R cannot be determined) Hence, conclusion I and II are correct and conclusion III is incorrect.
