In the following question, assuming the given statement to be true, find which of the conclusions is/are definitely true and then give your answer accordingly. Statement: Jsg < Ats = Yer ≥ Ple > Brs, Ats < Qvc = Gxa Conclusions: I. Jsg < Gxa II. Brs > Qvc
- Only conclusion I is true
- Only conclusion II is true
- Either conclusion I or II is true
- Neither conclusion I nor II is true
Correct answer: Only conclusion I is true
Solution
From Jsg < Ats = Yer ≥ Ple > Brs and Ats < Qvc = Gxa, we get Jsg < Ats < Qvc = Gxa, so conclusion I is definitely true. However, Brs is only known to be less than Ple, and no definite relation between Brs and Qvc can be established. Therefore, only conclusion I follows.
