Question

    Statements: N & C, C # I, I @ L, L % Y

    Conclusions: I.    C & Y                    II. L # N In the following question, the symbols $, @, & , % and # are used with the following meanings as illustrated below: ‘P $ Q’ means ‘P is neither greater than nor smaller to Q’  ‘P @ Q’ means ‘P is neither greater than nor equal to Q ‘P & Q’ means ‘P is neither smaller than nor equal to Q ‘P % Q’ means ‘P is not smaller than Q’  ‘P # Q’ means ‘P is not greater than Q Now, in each of the following question assuming the given statement to be true, find which of the two conclusions I and II given below them is / are definitely true. Give answer
    A If only conclusion I is true. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B If only conclusion II is true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C If either conclusion I or II is true. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D If neither conclusion I nor II is true Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E If both conclusion I and II are true. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Decoded statement: N > C, C ≤ I, I < L, L ≥ Y Decoded conclusion I. C > Y                            II.  L ≤ N Combined Inequalities: N > C ≤ I < L ≥ Y N > C ≤ I < L ≥ Y  No relationship can be established between C and Y. Hence conclusion I is not true. N > C ≤ I < L ≥ Y  No relationship can be established between N and L. Hence conclusion II is not true.
