Question

Statements: E @ M, M * H, H © G

Conclusions:

I. G @ M

II. G @ E

• A. Only conclusion I is true.
• B. Only conclusion II is true.
• C. Neither conclusion I nor conclusion II is true.
• D. Both conclusion I and conclusion II are true.

Answer 1

The correct option is A

Only conclusion I is true.

From the given statements
E@M means ‘E is neither smaller nor equal to M’. So E > M. (a)
M * H means ‘M is smaller than H’. So M < H (b)
H © G means ‘H is either smaller or equal to G’. So H £ G. (c)
Combining all the equations, you get E > M < H £ G (d)
Now, for the given conclusions
G @ M means ‘G is neither smaller nor equal to M’. So G > M. (i)
G @ E means ‘G is neither smaller nor equal to B’. So G > E. (ii)
So only conclusion (i) follows.
