SIR
OUR CONCLUSION SAYS-
1) P is smaller than equal to q
2) p>q

but my question is- in statement the sing which comes are
and in conclusion one sing says smaller than eqaul to...
than how can it be possible to mark either or....

Question:
DIRECTIONS: In these questions, symbols $, *, #, % and @ are used with different meaning as follows:

‘A $ B’ means ‘A is not smaller than B’.

‘A * B’ means ‘A’ is greater than B’.

‘A # B’ means ‘A’ is not greater than B’.

‘A % B’ means ‘A’ is smaller than B’.

‘A @ B’ means ‘A is neither smaller than nor greater than B.’


In each of the following questions assuming the given statements to be true, find out which of the two conclusions I and II given below them is/are definitely true.

Statements:  J # Q, Q * D, D % P

Conclusions:

I.  P # Q       

II. P * Q 

Options:
A) If only conclusion I is true.
B) If only conclusion II is true.
C) If either conclusion I or conclusion II is true.
D) If neither conclusion I nor conclusion II is true.
E) If both conclusions I and II are true.
Solution:
Ans: (d)

Statements:  J < Q, Q > D, D < P


On combining the statements:

Q > J   

Q > D  

P > D


J < Q > D< P


Conclusions:

I.  P < Q   (false)     

II. P > Q   (false)


Hence, neither conclusion I nor conclusion II is true.

@Mayank Tetwal so by combining both the statements, we get all the three symbols of inequality...........so either or appear as answer......

Because, only three symbols we have in inequalities viz. >/</=, so one of them must occur between two element even any relationship given in the statement or not..........
