Question:
DIRECTIONS: In the following questions, the symbols $ %, @, #, and & are used with the following meaning, as illustrated below:

  

‘A % B’ means ‘A is neither greater than nor equal to B’.

‘A $ B’ means ‘A is neither smaller than nor equal to B’.

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

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

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

Which of the following symbol should replace the question mark(?) in the given expression in order to make the expressions ‘K # W’ and ‘G % L’ definitely true?

 G & W @ T & V ? K & Y % L

Options:
A) # 
B) % 
C) $ 
D) @
E) Either % or $
Solution:
Ans: (d) According to the given information, the given symbols represent the following relations:

% ⇒ <

$ ⇒ >

@ ⇒ ≤

# ⇒≥

& ⇒ =

The given expression is

G & W @ T & V ? K & Y %L

⇒ G = W ≤ T = V ? K = Y < L

We should place ‘@‘which means ‘≤‘ in order to make the expressions

‘K # W’ ⇒ K ≥ W and ‘G % L’ ⇒ G < L definitely true.

Then the expression becomes G = W ≤ T = V ≤ K = Y < L.
