Directions: Study the following questions carefully and choose the right answer given beside.
Which of the following symbols should replace the question mark in the given statement in order to make conclusion 'W = F' as well as ' P > Y' definitely true?
M > W = P ? F ≥ T > Y

Options

  1. A>
  2. B<
  3. C>
  4. D=

Correct answer

D. =

Step-by-step solution

In order to make the given conclusions ' W = F' and ' P > Y' definitely true, we have to apply all the given symbols in the options one by one.

For option A: >

M > W = P& >& F ≥& T > Y

Here, the common sign between W and F is '>', thus it& does not follow W = F.

The common sign between P and Y is also '>' , thus it& follows& P > Y.

Since, we need a symbol which will follow both the conclusions simultaneously, option A gets eliminated.

For option B: <

M > W = P& <& F ≥& T > Y

Here, the common sign between W and F is '<', thus it& does not follow W = F.

Here, there are opposite signs between P and Y . Thus, no relationship can be established between them.

Hence, it& does not follow& both the conclusions.

For option C:& ≥

M > W = P& ≥& F ≥& T > Y

Here, the common sign between W and F is '≥', thus it& does not follow W = F solely.

Here, the common sign between P and Y is '>', thus it& follows& P > Y.

Since, we need a symbol which will follow both the conclusions simultaneously, option C gets eliminated.

For option D: =

M > W = P& =& F ≥& T > Y

Here, the common sign between W and F is '=', thus it& follows& W = F.

Here, the common sign between P and Y is '>', thus it& follows P& > Y.

Since both the conclusions follow simultaneously by using '=' symbol.

Hence option D is correct.
