Questions penned by Yogit

Direction: Q(1 – 5)
P & Q – P is neither smaller than nor equal to Q
P@Q – P is neither greater than nor equal to Q
P*Q – P is not smaller than Q
P$Q – P is not greater than Q
P%Q – P is neither greater than nor smaller than Q

  1. Statements: – A*B, B$C, C%D, D&E
    Conclusions: – a) A&C b) D&B
    1) Only conclusion 1 follows
    2) Only conclusion 2 follows
    3) Either 1 or 2 follow
    4) Both follow
    5) Neither conclusion 1 nor 2 follow
    Answer – 5) Neither conclusion 1 nor 2 follow
    Explanation :
    A>= B<=C =D >=E (we can’t say relate A and C and D is greater than and equal to B)

  2. Statements: – A@B, B$C, C*D, D%E
    Conclusions: – a) A&D b) C&A
    1) Only conclusion 1 follows
    2) Only conclusion 2 follows
    3) Either 1 or 2 follow
    4) Both follow
    5) Neither conclusion 1 nor 2 follow
    Answer – 2) Only conclusion 2 follow
    Explanation :
    A<B<=C>=D=E (C>A directly follows)

  3. Statements: – A%B, B*C, C@D, D&E
    Conclusions: – a) C*A b) B@E
    1) Only conclusion 1 follows
    2) Only conclusion 2 follows
    3) Either 1 or 2 follow
    4) Both follow
    5) Neither conclusion 1 nor 2 follow
    Answer –5) Neither conclusion 1 nor 2 follow
    Explanation :
    A =B>=C<D>E (Directly C>=A and no relation between B and E)

  4. Statements: – M*N, N%O, O%A, A&B
    Conclusions: – M&B b) N$A
    1) Only conclusion 1 follows
    2) Only conclusion 2 follows
    3) Either 1 or 2 follow
    4) Both follow
    5) Neither conclusion 1 nor 2 follow
    Answer – 1) Only conclusion 1 follows
    Explanation :
    M>=N=O=A>B (M>N and N= A so second conclusion doesn’t follow)

  5. Statements: – A@B, B%C, C*D, D%E
    Conclusions: – a) A&E b) B*D
    1) Only conclusion 1 follows
    2) Only conclusion 2 follows
    3) Either 1 or 2 follow
    4) Both follow
    5) Neither conclusion 1 nor 2 follow
    Answer – 2) Only conclusion 2 follows
    Explanation :
    A<B=C>=D=E (no relation A and E and B>=D directly follows)

  6. What should come in place of question mark in the expression P>Q ? R < T < S so as to make the expressions P>R and S>Q always true?
    a) =
    b) >
    c) <
    d) >=
    e) None of these
    Answer – a) =
    Explanation :
    P>Q = R< T < S (Both expression true)

  7. What should come in place of question mark in the expression A = B >C ? D< E = F so as to make the expression F>C always true?
    a) >
    b) =
    c) >=
    d) <=
    e) both b and d
    Answer – e) both b and d
    Explanation :
    A = B >C = D< E =F and A = B >C <= D< E =F (F>C true in both cases)

  8. Statements: P = S, P < Q, R <= Q, R<= T
    Conclusions :  a) Q > S b) Q  =  T
    a) Only one follow
    b) Only two follow
    c) Neither follows
    d) Both follow
    e) Either follow
    Answer – a) Only one follow
    Explanation :
    T>=R<=Q>P=S (clearly Q>S and no relation between Q and T)

  9. Statements: – A > N, K >= N, K > M, R > M
    Conclusions: – a) M = N b) R >= A
    a) Only one follow
    b) Only two follow
    c) Neither follows
    d) Both follow
    e) Either follow
    e) None of these
    Answer – c) Neither follows
    Explanation :
    A>N<=K>M<R (no relation between M and N and R and A)

  10. What should come in place of question mark to make B> D always true?
    A = B > C ? D <E
    a) >
    b) <
    c) >=
    d) < =
    e) both a and c
    Answer – e) both a and c
    Explanation :
    A = B >C >D <E and A = B>C>=D<E in both cases B will be greater than D
