11. If A < B D A, then which of the following can be concluded? [NTPC CBT - I 02/02/2021 (Morning)]

Correct Answer: (c) C > A < E
Solution:

A < B < C > D < E > A
C > A and A < E
so , C > A < E

12. Select the correct conclusion(s) / option that could be drawn from the given statements(s). [RRB JE 27/06/2019 (Evening)]

Statement:
U < P > S ≥ V
Conclusions:
I. S ≤ U
II. V = P
III. S > V

Correct Answer: (a) No conclusion is true
Solution:

Given, U < P > S ≥ V
I. S ≤ U = false (from, U < P > S)
II. V = P = false (from, P > S ≥ V)
III. S > V = false (from, S ≥ V)
No conclusion is true.

13. Select the correct conclusion(s) / option that could be drawn from the given statements(s). [RPF Constable 18/01/2019 (Evening)]

Statement:
B = L > O C = K < D ≥
Conclusion:
i) B < D
ii) K < B
Select the appropriate option from the following options

Correct Answer: (b) only Conclusion ii follow
Solution:

Given : - B = L > O ≥ C = K < D
(i) B < D (False)
(As B = L > O ≥ C = K < D)
(ii) K < B (True) (As B = L > O ≥ C = K)

14. Select the correct conclusion(s) / option that could be drawn from the given statements(s). [RPF S.I. 24/12/2018 (Morning)]

Statement :
A ≥ B, A > D, C < D, E = B
Conclusion :
i) A = E
ii) A > E
iii) A > C

Correct Answer: (c) only iii and i or ii
Solution:

Given, A ≥ B, A > D, C < D, E = B
A > B = E ⇒ A ≥ E
So either conclusion i or ii follows
A > D > C
Conclusion iii A > C = true (As, A > D > C)

15. Select the correct conclusion(s) / option that could be drawn from the given statements(s). [RPF S.I. 10/01/2019 (Morning)]

Statement:
C ≤ U < E; C = O > M ≥ T; M = A > L
Conclusion:
(i) E > L
(ii) E > T
(iii) U > O

Correct Answer: (d) i and ii only
Solution:

Given : - C ≤ U < E; C = O > M ≥ T; M = A > L
(i) E > L (True) (as C ≤ U < E; C = O > M ;M = A > L)
(ii) E > T (True) (as C ≤ U < E; C = O > M ≥ T)
(iii) U > O (False) (as C ≤ U < E; C = O)
Only (i) and (ii) follow.

16. Select the correct conclusion(s) / option that could be drawn from the given statements(s). [Group - D 17/08/2022 (Afternoon)]

Statement:
Z > R Y P = Q N < S ≥ > ≤
Conclusions:
1. P > S
2. Z < Q

Correct Answer: (a) Neither conclusion 1 nor 2 is true
Solution:

Given statement :
Z > R ≥ Y > P = Q ≤ N < S
I. P > S = false (as P = Q ≤ N < S)
because S is greater than P.
II. Z < Q = false (as Z > R ≥ Y > P = Q)
because Z is greater than Q .
Hence, neither conclusion 1 nor 2 is true.

17. Select the correct conclusion(s) / option that could be drawn from the given statements(s). [Group - D 17/08/2022 (Evening)]

Statement:
T > G < E > F = B ≤ Z
Conclusions:
I. F = Z
II. E > B

Correct Answer: (c) Only conclusion II is true
Solution:

Given statement: T > G < E > F = B ≤ Z
I. F = Z = false (as F = B ≤ Z), here F is equal to B but B is either equal or less than Z.
II. E > B = true (as E > F = B),
Only conclusion II is true.

18. Select the correct conclusion(s) / option that could be drawn from the given statements(s). [Group - D 17/08/2022 (Evening)]

Statement:
G ≥ P > T ≥ S > K = N < D

Correct Answer: (c) G > T
Solution:

Given statement :
G ≥ P > T ≥ S > K = N < D
(a) P > D = false (as P > T ≥ S > K = N < D), here, there is no relation between P and D.
(b) G ≥ D = false (as G ≥ P > T ≥ S > K = N < D), here, there is no relation between G and D.
(c) G > T = true (as G ≥ P > T),
(d) N > T = false (as T ≥ S > K = N), here T is greater than N.

19. Select the correct conclusion(s) / option that could be drawn from the given statements(s). [Group - D 18/08/2022 (Morning)]

Statement:
H = W > F ≥ S ≥ T > Y

Correct Answer: (b) Y < S
Solution:

Given statement:
H = W > F ≥ S ≥ T > Y
(a) H < F = false (as H = W > F) H is greater than F
(b) Y < S = true (as S > T > Y) S is greater than Y
(c) W < T = false (as W > F ≥ S ≥ T) W is greater than T
(d) T ≥ F = false (as F ≤ ≥ T) T is less than F
Here, we can see that Y < S, is the only condition true.

20. Select the correct conclusion(s) / option that could be drawn from the given statements(s). [Group - D 18/08/2022 (Afternoon)]

Statement:
B ≥ M > G, S < G Y = L
Conclusions:
1. B > Y
2. M = L

Correct Answer: (c) Only conclusion 1 is true
Solution:

B ≥ M > G, S < G ≥ Y = L
B > Y, True (as B ≥ M > G ≥ Y)
M = L, False (as M > G ≥ Y = L)
