From statements I and III, we get:

Y ≥ V = X ≥ P = R

Here, the common sign between Y and R is '>' . Thus Y ≥ R.

Hence conclusion I does not follow individually.

For Conclusion II: M < Z

From statements II and IV, we get:

Z < C = M

Here, we the common sign between Z and& M is '<'. Thus Z < M or M > Z.

Hence conclusion II does not follow.

For Conclusion III:& Y = R& Since conclusion I is that "Y > R" and conclusion III is that "Y = R" and we have the true relationship as "Y ≥ R", so if we combine both the conclusions, we will arrive at the conclusion that Y is either equal to or greater than R i.e. Y ≥ R.

Thus either conclusion I or III follows.

Hence option B is correct.
