Directions: In these questions, relationship between different elements is shown in the various statements which is followed by three conclusions. Choose the correct answer on the basis of information given below.
Statements:& S < U,& & N ≥ V,& & U = Q,& & R > N,& & S ≤ G,& & Q > T,& & V = GConclusions:& U > T& & R > S& & R = S
Options
- AOnly conclusion (I) follows
- BBoth conclusions (I) and (II) follow
- COnly conclusion (II) follows
- DEither conclusion (I) or (II) follows
Correct answer
B. Both conclusions (I) and (II) follow
Step-by-step solution
Statements: S < U, N ≥ V, U = Q, R > N, S ≤ G, Q > T, V = G
Conclusions:& U > T& & R > S& & R = S
R > N ≥ V = G ≥ S < U = Q > T
For conclusion (I): U > T
Here, the common sign between U and T is '>'. Thus U > T.
Hence conclusion (I) follows.
For conclusion (II): R > S
Here, the common sign between R and S is '>'. Thus R > S.
Thus conclusion (II) follows.
Here, the common sign between R and S is '>'. Thus R > S.
Therefore conclusion (III) does not follow.
Hence option B is correct.
