Question
Every element of S1 is made greater than or equal to every element of S2 by adding to each element of S1 an integer x. Then, x cannot be less than: (CAT 1999)
Answer: Option D
:
D
Ans: (d)
The smallest integer of the series is 1 and greatest integer is 50. If each element of S1 is made greater of equal to every element of S2, then the smallest element 1 should be added to (50 - 1) = 49. Hence option (G-L) is the correct answer.
As this is a variable based question: the word "ANY" can be used
Let the series of integers a1,a2,.......,a50 be 1,2,3,4,5,.......,50.
S1=1,2,3,4,.........24,S2=25,26,27,..........50
