Question

In the given questions, assume the given statements to be true. Find which of the given four conclusions numbered I, II, III and IV is/are definitely true and give your answer.

Statements
$M>U>L\le N;L\le Y>A$
Conclusions
I. $Y<N$
II. $M>N$
III.$N=Y$
IV. $M>A$

• A. Only either II or Ill is true
• B. Only IV and either I or lll are true
• C. Only IV is true
• D. Only II is true
• E. Only III is true

Answer 1

The correct option is B Only IV and either I or lll are true

Grven statements are
$M>U>L\le N$ ...(i)
$L\ge Y>A$ ...(ii)
From Eqs, (I) and (ii), we get
$M>U>L\ge Y\ge A$
and $A<Y\le L\le N$
Thus, $Y\le N$ is true.
So. Y < N may be true.
And Y = N may be true.
So, conclusion I and III make a
complementary pair.
Thus, either I or Ill Is true.
Again, we cannot compare M and N.
So, II is not true. But M > A is true.
Hence, IV is true. Hence. only N and
either I or III are true.
