In the following questions, the symbols *, §, %, @ and © used with the following meaning as illustrated below
‘P % Q’ means ‘P is not smaller than Q’.
‘P © Q’ means ‘P is neither smaller than nor equal to Q’.
‘P * Q’ means ‘P is neither great er than nor equal to Q’.
‘P § Q’ means ‘P is not greater than Q’.
‘P @ Q’ means ‘P is neither greater than nor smaller than Q’.
Now In each of the following questions assuming the given statements to he true.
find which of the three conclusions I, II and Ill given below them is/are definitely
true and given your answer accordingly.
Statements :
B * J, J % W, W © M
Conclusions :
I. M.* J
II. W * B
III. B © M
statements and their explanations are as follows:
B * J:B<J
J % W:{W}$$\leq$${J}
W © M:W>M
this can be simplified into one equation as: {J}$$\geq$${W}>M
conclusion I. M.* J:M<J, this can be inferred from the simplified equation hence is correct.
conclusion II. W * B:W<B, this cannot be inferred from the simplified equation hence is incorrect.
conclusion III. B © M:B>M, this cannot be inferred from the simplified equation hence is incorrect.
since only conclusion 1 follows therefore correct option is option B
