Dear readers, here we are providing you a quiz on Inequality. Hope you like the post.
Directions—(1-–5) In the following questions, the symbols @, $, %, # and © are used with the following meanings illustrated—
‘A @ B’ means ‘A is not smaller than B’.
‘A $ B’ means ‘A is not greater than B’.
‘A % B’ means ‘A is neither smaller than nor equal to B’.
‘A # B’ means ‘A is neither greater than nor equal to B’.
‘A © B’ means ‘A is neither smaller than nor greater than B’.
In each of the following questions assuming the given statements to be true, find out which of the two conclusions I and II given below them is/are definitely true. Give answer—
1] If only conclusion I is true.
2] If only conclusion II is true.
3] If either conclusion I or conclusion II is true.
4] If neither conclusion I nor conclusion II is true.
5] If both conclusions I and II are true.
1. Statements: A @ B, B # C, C $ D
Conclusions: I. D % A II. C % A
2. Statements: M $ N, N @ P, P % Q
Conclusions: I. P © M II. Q # N
3. Statements: E % F, F # G, G @ H
Conclusions: I. H # F II. E % G
4. Statements: J © K, K $ L, L % M
Conclusions: I. L © J II. L % J
5. Statements: W # X, X % Y, Y © Z
Conclusions: I. Z # X II. Y # W
Directions (6-10): Read each of the following statements carefully and answer the questions.

(2) £, <, =
(3) <
(4) >, <
(5) None of these
