Answer: Option C. -> if both conclusions (I) and (II) follows


a £ b means a ≤ ba $ b means a ≥ ba ↑ b means a < ba ● b means a > ba â–² b means a = bThe statement is (i) e £ f, (ii) f ↑ g (iii) e â–² hi.e,  e ≤ f, f < g, e = h=> g > h ≥ e = hConclusion I: f $ h => f ≥ h is true.Hence, I follows.Conclusion II: g ● e = g > e is trueHence, II follows.

Answer: Option D. -> >


By replacing question mark with '>' symbol. We get,E ≤ F ≥ G > H = I ≥ K.From the above, F > I and G > K definitely follow.


Question 96. Select the correct alternative from given choices.Which of the following symbol should replace question mark (?) in the given expression in order to make the statements 'K > O' and 'N ≥ Q' definitely follow?K > M ≥ N ? O ≥ P ≥ Q

  4.    None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> ≥


By replacing question mark with '≥' symbol. We get,K > M ≥ N ≥ O ≥ P ≥ Q.From the above 'K > O' and 'N ≥ Q' definitely follow.


Question 97. Select the correct alternative from given choices.Which of the following symbol should replace question mark (?) in the given expression in order to make the statements 'A < B' and 'C > D' definitely follow?A < D ? B ≤ E ≤ C > F.

 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> >


By replacing question mark with '>' symbol we get,T ≥ X > Y ≥ Z > V ≤ W.From the above 'X > V' and 'Z < T' definitely follow.


Question 98. Select the correct alternative from given choices.Which of the following symbol should replace question mark (?) in the given expression in order to make the statements 'F > C' and 'B < E' definitely follow?F < K ≥ B ? C ≤ d > E

  3.    =
  4.    >
  5.    Such a case is not possible
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option E. -> Such a case is not possible


By replacing with any symbol we can not determine definite relation between 'F and C' and 'B and E'


Question 99. Select the correct alternative from given choices.Which of the following symbol should replace question mark (?) in the given expression in order to make the statements 'X > V' and 'Z < T' definitely follow?T ≥ X ? Y ≥ Z > V ≤ W
  1.    >
  2.    â‰¥
  3.    â‰¤
  4.    Such a case is not possible
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> >


By replacing question mark with '>' symbol we get,T ≥ X > Y ≥ Z > V ≤ W.From the above 'X > V' and 'Z < T' definitely follow.


Question 100. If * stands for 'addition', / stands for 'subtraction', + stands for 'multiplication', and - stands for 'division', then 20 * 8 / 8 - 4 + 2 = ?
  1.    80
  2.    25
  3.    24
  4.    5
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 24


Using the correct symbols, we have:
Given expression = 20 + 8 - 8 / 4 * 2
= 20 + 8 - 2 * 2 = 20 + 8 - 4 = 24.
