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: & T > K > Y ,& & J& ≤ K = G ,& & I > C& ≥ G ,& M ≤ I < NConclusions:& N > K ,& & C ≤ T,& & & M < J
Options
- ABoth conclusions II and III follow
- BEither conclusion I or III follows
- COnly conclusion I follows
- DOnly conclusion II follows
Correct answer
C. Only conclusion I follows
Step-by-step solution
Statements:& & T > K > Y ,& & J& ≤ K = G ,& & I > C& ≥ G ,& M ≤ I < N
Conclusions:& N > K ,& & C ≤ T,& & & M < J
For Conclusion I:& N > K
From statements II, III and IV, we get:
N > I > C ≥ G = K
Here, the common sign between N and K is '>'. Thus N > K.
Hence conclusion I follows.
N > I > C ≥ G = K
Here, the common sign between N and K is '>'. Thus N > K.
Hence conclusion I follows.
For Conclusion II:& C ≤ T
From statements I, II and III, we get:
C& ≥ G = K < T
Here, we can see the opposite sign between C and& T , thus no relationship can be established between them.
Hence conclusion II does not follow.
For Conclusion III:& M < J
From statements II, III and IV, we get:
M ≤ I > C ≥ G = K ≥ J
Here, we can see the opposite sign between M and J, thus no relationship can be established between them.
Hence conclusion III does not follow.
Therefore only conclusion I follows.
Hence option C is correct.
