Directions: In these questions, relationship between different elements is shown in the statement. The statements are followed by two conclusions. Choose the correct Answer given below:
Statements: & W ≥ Q > U ,& & T = L ≥ Q ,& & V& ≤ A < LConclusions:& T > U ,& & & W > T
Options
- ABoth conclusions I and II follow
- BEither conclusion I or II follows
- COnly conclusion I follows
- DOnly conclusion II follows
Correct answer
C. Only conclusion I follows
Step-by-step solution
Statements:& & W ≥ Q > U ,& & T = L ≥ Q ,& & V& ≤ A < L
Conclusions:& T > U ,& & & W > T
For conclusion I: T > U
From statements I and II, we get:
T = L ≥ Q > U
Conclusions:& T > U ,& & & W > T
For conclusion I: T > U
From statements I and II, we get:
T = L ≥ Q > U
Here, the common sign between T and U is '>'. Thus T > U.
Hence conclusion I follows.
For conclusion II: W > T
From statements I and II, we get:
W ≥ Q ≤ L = T
W ≥ Q ≤ L = T
Here, we can see the opposite sign between W and T, thus no relationship can be established between them.
Hence conclusion II does not follow.
Hence conclusion II does not follow.
Thus only conclusion I follows.
Hence option C is correct.
