Conclusions:

I.G = R

II.G < R

A) Only conclusion I is true. B) Only conclusion II is true.
C) Either conclusion I or II is true. D) Neither conclusion I nor II is true.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Either conclusion I or II is true.

Explanation:

Given:M < S<=T = R>=D > E>=F ...(i)

G<=S < H ...(ii)

Combining (i) and (ii), we get

G<=S<=T = R>=D > E>F andH > S<=T = R>=D > E>=F and

G<=S > M and M < S < H

(I) G = R is not true.

(II) G < R is not true.

But both are complamentary are pair.
