Directions: In the following question assuming the given statements to be true, find which of the conclusion(s) among given conclusions is/are definitely true and then give your answers accordingly.
Statement:
Y ≥ C < O ≥ F < R = B
Conclusions:
I. B > F
II. R > C
Correct Answer :
Only I follows
Solution :
Correct Answer: Only I follows
To determine which of the conclusions definitely follow, let us analyze the given statement step-by-step.
Given Statement:
Analyzing Conclusion I:
From the statement, the relationship between F, R, and B is given as:
Since , we can substitute B for R in the inequality :
This can also be written as .
Therefore, Conclusion I is definitely true.
Analyzing Conclusion II:
From the statement, the path connecting C and R is:
Notice the inequality symbols between C and R: we have a less-than sign () followed by a greater-than-or-equal-to sign (). The opposite directions of these symbols mean that there is a break in the relationship chain between C and R.
Because the symbols are in opposite directions, no definite relation can be established between C and R.
Therefore, Conclusion II does not follow.
Conclusion:
Since only Conclusion I is definitely true, the correct choice is Only I follows.
