You have to assume everything in the statement to be true, then consider the two conclusions together and decide which of them logically follows beyond a reasonable doubt from the information given in the statement.

  1. If only conclusion I follows
  2. If only conclusion II follows
  3. If either I or II follows
  4. If neither I nor II follows and
  5. If both I and II follow.

Refer to the symbols below and their corresponding meanings. The given signs denote the following operations/relationships:
X ? Y means X is less than or equal to Y.
X/Y means X is equal to Y.
X = Y means X is greater than Y.
X + Y means X is half of Y.
Which of the two conclusions I and II is/are definitely true based on the information provided ?
Statements:
R ? A, B = A and B/C
Conclusions:
I. R ? C
II. A + C

A. Only conclusion I is true

B. Only conclusion II is true

C. Both the conclusions are true

D. Neither conclusion I nor II is true

Answer : D. Neither conclusion I nor II is true

Explanation

Let’s decode the statements first:
R ? A : R ≤ A
B = A : B > A
B / C : B = C
This can be deduced as:
R ≤ A < B = C

Let’s decode the conclusions now:
1. R ? C : R ≤ C
2. A + C : A = C / 2
None of the statements can be concluded to be definitely true.
