Question

Directions (9-11):

(a) Only conclusion I is true

(b) Only conclusion II is true

(c) Either I or II is true

(d) Both I and II are true

(e) Neither I nor II is true.

Q9. Statements: O S = G ≤ R ≥ K; L ≤ R = P; T < J = P

Conclusions:

I. S < L

II. J ≥ G

  1. A. If only conclusion I is true
  2. B. If only conclusion II is true (Correct answer)
  3. C. If either conclusion I or II is true
  4. D. If both conclusions I and II are true
  5. E. If neither conclusion I nor II is true

Correct Answer

Option B — If only conclusion II is true

Detailed Solution & Explanation

The correct answer is If only conclusion II is true.

Key Points

  • From statements: J = P = R ≥ G → J ≥ G (TRUE).
  • For I: S = G ≤ R and L ≤ R, so S and L are both ≤ R; no definite relation between S and L → I is FALSE.
