Question Details

Directions (84-86) : In the following questions assuming the given statement to be true, find which of the conclusion(s) among the given conclusions is/are definitely true and then give your answers accordingly.


Statement.
K > Y ≥ R, M ≤ R = S, J > M
Conclusions.
I. K > J
II. Y ≥ S

Options

A

Only conclusion I is true

B

Only conclusion II is true

C

Either conclusion I or II is true

D

Neither conclusion I nor II is true

E

Both conclusions I and II are true

Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option B

Only conclusion II is true

Solution :

Correct Answer: Only conclusion II is true


Let us analyze the given statements step-by-step to check the validity of each conclusion.


Given Statements:
1. K>YR
2. MR=S
3. J>M


Combining the relevant relations:

K>YR=SM<J


Checking Conclusion I: K > J
From the combined relationship between K and J:
K>YR=SM<J
We can see that the inequality signs between K and J are in opposite directions (> and <). Therefore, no definite relationship can be established between K and J.
Thus, Conclusion I is not definitely true.


Checking Conclusion II: Y ≥ S
From the statements, we have:
YR and R=S
Substituting R=S into YR gives:

YS

Thus, Conclusion II is definitely true.


Therefore, only conclusion II is true.
