Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
To determine which relation is false, let's analyze the given conditions step-by-step:
Given Conditions
L > M (L is greater than M)
M = N (M is equal to N)
D < M (D is less than M, which is the same as M > D)
Consolidated Relationship Chain
Since M = N, we can substitute N for M in the other inequalities:
L > N (Since L > M and M = N)
N > D (Since M > D and M = N)
L > N > D (This combines the full chain)
Conclusion
Option 4 is the false relation because it contradicts the established inequality chain where N is greater than D.
