  1. In which of the following expressions will the expression ‘H < J’ definitely true?
    A) G < H ≥ I = J
    B) H > G ≥ I = J
    C) J = I ≥ G > H
    D) H ≥ G > I < J
    E) None of these
    C) J = I ≥ G > H
    Explanation:

    In B) – H > J
    In D) No relation between H and J

  2. Which of the following expressions will be true if the expression ‘K ≥ L > M ≥ N’ is definitely true?
    A) N ≤ K
    B) K = M
    C) K < N
    D) L ≥ N
    E) None of these
    E) None of these
    Explanation:

    N < K, K > M, K > N, L > N

  3. Which of the following expressions will be true if the expression ‘M ≥ K < T = Q’ is definitely true?
    A) Q < K
    B) M ≥ T
    C) M < Q
    D) T = M
    E) None of these
    E) None of these
    Explanation:

    Q > K, no relation between M and T, no relation between M and Q, no relation between M and T

  4. Which of the following expressions may not be true if the expression ‘Z ≥ Y = W ≤ X’ is definitely true?
    A) W ≤ Z
    B) X ≥ Z
    C) Y ≤ X
    D) only B and C
    E) All are true
    B) X ≥ Z
    Explanation:

    Z ≥ Y = W , so Z ≥ W, so A is true
    Y = W ≤ X, so Y ≤ X, so C is true
