View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (c)C.

Only conclusion I follows.

Why this answer is correct

**Given

Statements:

** N ≤ Q; M > B; Q = R < O < M

Combining: N ≤ Q = R < O < M > B

Conclusions:

I. N < O → True (as N ≤ Q = R < O → N < O)

II. Q ≤ M → False (as N ≤ Q = R < O < M → Q < M, thus Q ≤ M cannot be true)

Hence, only conclusion I follows.

View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (b)B.

Only conclusion II follows.

Why this answer is correct

**Given

Statements:

** A ≥ C ≥ D > G = I ≥ B; S ≥ M > B

Combining:  A ≥ C ≥ D > G = I ≥ B < M ≤ S

Conclusions:

I. C ≥ M → False (as C ≥ D > G = I ≥ B < M → no clear relation between C and M can be determined)

II. A > I → True (as A ≥ C ≥ D > G = I → A > I)

Hence, only conclusion II follows.

View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (e)E.

Neither of the conclusions follows.

Why this answer is correct

**Given

Statements:

** G < L; D ≥ G; H = L; H ≤ B

Combining: D ≥ G < L = H ≤ B

Conclusions:

I. G > B → False (as G < L = H ≤ B → G > B cannot be true)

II. B > D → False (as D ≥ G < L = H ≤ B → no relation between B and D can be determined)

Hence, neither conclusion I nor conclusion II follows.
