Given signs signify something and on that basis assume the given statement to be true and find which of the two conclusions I and II is/are definitely true.
A + B means A is greater than B
A -B means A is less than B
A = B means A is greater than equal to B
A * B means A is not equal to B.
A / B means A is equal to B
Statements:
L + N, N/O, O+P
Conclusions:
I. L -O
II. N + P
- A.
Only conclusion I is true.
- B.
Only conclusion II is true.
- C.
Neither conclusion I nor II is true
- D.
Both conclusions I and II are true
Attempted by 4 students.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
L+N → L > N
N/O → N = O
O+P → O > P
Conclusion I:
L -O = L is less than O.
As per the statement, N and O are equal and L is greater than N which means L is greater than O as well.
So, L cannot be less than O and Conclusion I does not follow the statement .
Conclusion II:
N+P = N>P
As per the statement, N and O are equal and O is greater than P which means N is also greater than P.
This conclusion follows the given statements.Only conclusion II follows the statements.
