A) Only a follows B) Only c follows
C) Only a & b follows D) a, b & c follows

Answer:   D) a, b & c follows



Explanation:

All locks are bangles + All bangles are cars = A + A = A
= All locks are cars => Some cars are locks.
Hence conclusion (a) follows.
All keys are locks + All locks are bangles = A + A = A
= All keys are bangles => some bangles are keys.
Hence conclusion (b) follows.
All keys are bangles + All bangles are cars = A + A = A
= All keys are cars => Some cars are keys.
Hence conclusion (C) follows.

Q:

In the following question assuming the given statements to be true, find which of the conclusion among given conclusions is/are definitely true and then give your answers accordingly.

Statements: C ≤ R ≤ N = M ≥ F; Q ≥ M < O; D ≥ L; C ≥ D ≤ S ≥ Z

Conclusions:

i. R ≤ F

ii. C < Q

A) None is true B) Only I is true
C) Only II is true D) Either I or II is true
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) None is true

Explanation:

Given statements: C ≤ R ≤ N = M ≥ F; Q ≥ M < O; D ≥ L; C ≥ D ≤ S ≥ ZOn combining: C≤ R ≤ N = M < O; F ≤ M = N ≥ R ≥ C ≥ D ≤ S ≥ ZConclusions:i. R ≤ F→False (as F ≤M = N ≥R→clear relation between R and F cannot be Determined)ii. C < Q→false (as C ≤R ≤N = M ≤Q→C≤Q)Therefore,None is true

Q:

In the following question assuming the given statements to be true, find which of the conclusion among given conclusions is/are definitely true and then give your answers accordingly.

Statements: Z ≤ K < D = S; D < A < O; G ≥ D < R

Conclusions:

i. G > A

ii. Z < R

A) None is true B) Only I is true
C) Only II is true D) Either I or II is true
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Only II is true

Explanation:

Given statements: Z ≤ K < D = S; D < A < O; G ≥ D < ROn combining: Z ≤ K < D < A < O; S = D < R; G ≥ D < RConclusions:i. G > A→False (as G ≥D < A→clear relation between G and A cannot be Determined)ii. Z < R→True (as Z ≤K < D < R→Z < R)Therefore, only conclusion II is true.

Q:

In the following question assuming the given statements to be true, find which of the conclusion among given conclusions is/are definitely true and then give your answers accordingly.

Statements: Y ≤ K < D = S; D < B < O; A ≥ D < Z

Conclusions:

I. A > B

II. Y < Z

A) None is true B) Only I is true
C) Only II is true D) Either I or II is true
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Only II is true

Explanation:

Given statements: Y ≤ K < D = S; D < B < O; A ≥ D < Z

On combining: Y ≤ K < D < B < O; A ≥ D = S; D < Z

Conclusions:i. A > B→False (as A ≥D < B→thus clear relation between A and B cannot be Determined)

ii. Y < Z→True(as Y ≤K < D < Z→Y < Z)

Therefore, only conclusionIIis true.

Q:

In the following question assuming the given statements to be true, find which of the conclusion among given conclusions is/are definitely true and then give your answers accordingly.


Statements: P > Q ≤ R > Z;  Y > X > P ≥ U; Q ≥ S < T

Conclusions:
I. P > S
II. Z < T

A) None is true B) Only I is true
C) Only II is true D) Either I or II is true
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Only I is true

Explanation:
Given statements: P > Q ≤ R > Z; Y > X > P ≥ U;
Q ≥ S < T
On combining: P > Q ≥ S < T; Y
> X > Q ≤ R > Z
Conclusions:
I. P > S→True (as P > Q≥S→P > S)
II. Z < T→ False(as Z < R≥Q≥S < T→thus clear relation between Z and T cannot be Determined)
 
Therefore, only conclusion I is true.
