Coded Inequalities section 2 MCQ Detailed Explanation And More Example
MOST IMPORTANT verbal reasoning - 3 EXERCISES
Directions:
In the following questions, the symbols δ, $, *, @ and © are used with the following meanings as illustrated below:
- 'P $ Q' means 'P is neither equal to nor greater than Q'.
- 'P © Q' means 'P is neither equal to nor smaller than Q'
- 'P δ Q' means 'P is neither greater than nor smaller than Q.
- 'P @ Q' means 'P is not smaller than Q'
- 'P * Q' means 'P is not greater than Q'.
In each question three statements showing relationship have been given, which are followed by three conclusions I, II and III. Assuming that the given statements are true, find out which conclusion(s) is/are definitely true?
The following question based on Coded Inequalities topic of verbal reasoning
W δ K, K © F, F $ M
Conclusions:
I.M © K
II.W @ F
III.F @ W
(a) Only II is true
(b) Only III is true
(c) Only I is true
(d) Only II and III are true
e) None is true
The correct answers to the above question in:
Answer: (e)
(i) P $ Q ⇒ P < Q
(ii) P © Q ⇒ P > Q
(iii) P δ Q ⇒ P = Q
(iv) P @ Q ⇒ P ≥ Q
(v) P * Q ⇒ P ≤ Q
W δ K ⇒ W = K
K © F ⇒ K > F
F $ M ⇒ F < M
Therefore, W = K > F < M
Conclusions
I. M © K ⇒ M > K: Not True
II. W @ F ⇒ W ≥ F: Not True
III. F @ W ⇒ F ≥ W : Not True

Question : 1
Statements:
D $ M, M * B, B δ J
Conclusions:
I.J © D
II.B @ D
III.J @ M
a) Only I and III are true
b) Only II and III are true
c) Only I and II are true
d) All I, II and III are true
e) None of these
Answer »Answer: (a)
(i) P $ Q ⇒ P < Q
(ii) P © Q ⇒ P > Q
(iii) P δ Q ⇒ P = Q
(iv) P @ Q ⇒ P ≥ Q
(v) P * Q ⇒ P ≤ Q
D $ M ⇒ D < M
M * B ⇒ M ≤ B
B δ J ⇒ B = J
Therefore, D < M ≤ B = J
Conclusions
I. J © D ⇒ J > D : True
II. B @ D ⇒ B ≥ D : Not True
III. J @ M ⇒ J ≥ M: True
Question : 2
Statements:
F * T, T $ N, N @ R
Conclusions:
I.R $ T
II.N © F
III.F $ R
a) Only I is true
b) Only II is true
c) None is true
d) Only III is true
e) Only II and III are true
Answer »Answer: (b)
(i) P $ Q ⇒ P < Q
(ii) P © Q ⇒ P > Q
(iii) P δ Q ⇒ P = Q
(iv) P @ Q ⇒ P ≥ Q
(v) P * Q ⇒ P ≤ Q
F * T ⇒ F ≤ T
T $ N ⇒ T < N
N @ R ⇒ N ≥ R
Therefore, F ≤ T < N ≥ R
Conclusions
I. R $ T ⇒ R < T : Not True
II. N © F ⇒ N > F: True
III. F $ R ⇒ F < R: Not True
Question : 3
Statements:
M @ D, D δ K, K © R
Conclusions:
I.R $ M
II.K δ M
III.K $ M
a) Only II is true
b) Only III is true
c) Only I is true
d) Only either II or III and I are true
e) Only either II or III is true
Answer »Answer: (d)
(i) P $ Q ⇒ P < Q
(ii) P © Q ⇒ P > Q
(iii) P δ Q ⇒ P = Q
(iv) P @ Q ⇒ P ≥ Q
(v) P * Q ⇒ P ≤ Q
M @ D ⇒ M ≥ D
D δ K ⇒ D = K
K © R ⇒ K > R
Therefore, M ≥ D = K > R
Conclusions
I. R $ M ⇒ R < M: True
II. K δ M ⇒ K = M: Not True
III. K $ M ⇒ K < M : Not True
K is either smaller than or equal to M.
Therefore, either II or III is true.
Question : 4
Statements:
F @ T, T d K, K * D
Conclusions:
I.D @ F
II.F @ K
III.D @ T
a) Only I and III are true
b) Only I and II are true
c) Only II and III are true
d) All I, II and III are true
e) None of these
Answer »Answer: (c)
(i) P $ Q ⇒ P < Q
(ii) P © Q ⇒ P > Q
(iii) P δ Q ⇒ P = Q
(iv) P @ Q ⇒ P ≥ Q
(v) P * Q ⇒ P ≤ Q
F @ T ⇒ F ≥ T
T δ K ⇒ T = K
K * D ⇒ K ≤ D
Therefore, F ≥ T = K ≤ D
Conclusions
I. D @ F ⇒ D ≥ F: Not True
II. F @ K ⇒ F ≥ K: True
III. D @ T ⇒ D ≥ T : True
Directions:
In these questions, relationship between different elements is shown in the statements. These statements are followed by two conclusions.
