Directions: In this question, relationship between different elements is shown in the statements. You have to take the given statements to be true even if they seem to be at variance with commonly known facts. The statement is followed by some conclusions. Study the conclusions based on the given statement and select the appropriate answer.
Statements: G < T ≤ K = E ≤ Q < I,& & J = Q < H ≤ S ≤ V > N,& & A ≤ V < O = Y = W > U
Conclusions:& I. T < O& & & II. S > K
Options
- ANeither C1 nor C2 follows
- BOnly C1 follows
- CBoth C1 and C2 follow
- DOnly C2 follows
Correct answer
C. Both C1 and C2 follow
Step-by-step solution
Statements:& G < T ≤ K = E ≤ Q < I,& & J = Q < H ≤ S ≤ V > N,& & A ≤ V < O = Y = W > U
Conclusions:& I. T < O& & II. S > K
Combining both the equations to find the relationship between T and O, we get
T ≤ K = E ≤ Q < H ≤ S ≤ V < O
Clearly, the common sign of inequalities between T and O is of '<' and the given conclusion is T < O. C1, hence, follows.
Similarly, for S and K, we get
S ≥ H > Q ≥ E = K
Clearly, the common sign between S and K is of '>' and the given conclusion is S > K. C2, hence, follows as well.
Option C is hence the correct answer.
