Q:

Read both the statements given below and answer the question.

Q : Which train did Harish catch to go to office ?

Statements :

A. Harish missed his usual train of 4.15 p.m. A train comes in every 15 minutes.

B. Harish did not catch the 4.45 p.m. train or any train after that time.

A) If statement B alone is sufficient but statement A alone is not sufficient. B) If statement A alone is sufficient but statement B alone is not sufficient.
C) If both statement together are sufficient, but neither statement alone is sufficient. D) If statement A and B together are not sufficient.

Answer:   D) If statement A and B together are not sufficient.



Explanation:

From both statements we cannot conclude the train catched by Harish

Since he missed at 4.15 and train coes at 4.30, 4.45, 5.00,...

But in B given that he didn't catch the train at 4.45 and after that.

So both statements A & B together are not sufficient to answer the question.

Statements: C ≤ R ≤ N = M ≥ F; Q ≥ M < O; D ≥ L; C ≥ D ≤ S ≥ Z

Conclusions:

i. R ≤ F

ii. C < Q

A) None is true B) Only I is true
C) Only II is true D) Either I or II is true
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) None is true

Explanation:

Given statements: C ≤ R ≤ N = M ≥ F; Q ≥ M < O; D ≥ L; C ≥ D ≤ S ≥ ZOn combining: C≤ R ≤ N = M < O; F ≤ M = N ≥ R ≥ C ≥ D ≤ S ≥ ZConclusions:i. R ≤ F→False (as F ≤M = N ≥R→clear relation between R and F cannot be Determined)ii. C < Q→false (as C ≤R ≤N = M ≤Q→C≤Q)Therefore,None is true

Q:

In the following question assuming the given statements to be true, find which of the conclusion among given conclusions is/are definitely true and then give your answers accordingly.

Statements: Y ≤ K < D = S; D < B < O; A ≥ D < Z

Conclusions:

I. A > B

II. Y < Z

A) None is true B) Only I is true
C) Only II is true D) Either I or II is true
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Only II is true

Explanation:

Given statements: Y ≤ K < D = S; D < B < O; A ≥ D < Z

On combining: Y ≤ K < D < B < O; A ≥ D = S; D < Z

Conclusions:i. A > B→False (as A ≥D < B→thus clear relation between A and B cannot be Determined)

ii. Y < Z→True(as Y ≤K < D < Z→Y < Z)

Therefore, only conclusionIIis true.

In the following question assuming the given statements to be true, find which of the conclusion among given conclusions is/are definitely true and then give your answers accordingly.


Statements: P > Q ≤ R > Z;  Y > X > P ≥ U; Q ≥ S < T

Conclusions:
I. P > S
II. Z < T

A) None is true B) Only I is true
C) Only II is true D) Either I or II is true
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Only I is true

Explanation:
Given statements: P > Q ≤ R > Z; Y > X > P ≥ U;
Q ≥ S < T
On combining: P > Q ≥ S < T; Y
> X > Q ≤ R > Z
Conclusions:
I. P > S→True (as P > Q≥S→P > S)
II. Z < T→ False(as Z < R≥Q≥S < T→thus clear relation between Z and T cannot be Determined)
 
Therefore, only conclusion I is true.
