< : Stands for not equal to

- : Stands for greater than

+ : Stands for not greater than

> : Stands for less than

= : Stands for not less than

If p × q × r, then it is not possible that :

• A. p - q = r
• B. p = q + r
• C. p + q + r
• D. p = q = r

Answer 1

The correct option is A p - q = r

p q r stands p = q = r.
A. p - q = r stands p $>$ q $\ge$ r not possible
B. p = q + r stands p $\ge$ q $\le$ r possible
C. p + q + r stands p $\le$ q $\le$ r possible
D. p = q = r stands p $\ge$ q $\ge$ r possible
So, option A is correct.
