SBI PO Reasoning Part-4

Directions (Question No 21 to 25) in the following questions, the symbols @, $, *, # and % are used with the following meaning as illustrated below:
‘P $ Q ‘means ‘P is not smaller than Q’.
‘P @ Q’ means ‘P is neither smaller than nor equal to Q’.
‘P # Q’ means ‘P is neither greater than nor equal to Q’.
‘P % Q’ means ‘P is neither greater than nor smaller than Q’.
‘P * Q’ means ‘P is not greater than Q’.
Now in each of the following questions assuming the given statements to be true, find which of the four conclusions A, B, C and D. Given below them each / are definitely true and give your answer accordingly.

21. Statement: N % B, ‘B $ W’, ‘W # H’, ‘H * M’.
Conclusion:
 ‘M @ W’
B. ‘H @ N’
C. ‘W % N’
D. ‘W # N’

Options:
1. Only A is true.
2. Only C is true.
3. Only D is true.
4. Only C or D is true.
5. Only either C or D and A are true.

Answer: 5(Only either C or D and A are true.)
N=B, B>=W, W<H, H<=Q
So, N=b>=W<H<=M

A. M>W(True)
B. H>N(False)
C. W=N(True)
OR
D. W<N(True)
Hence, N>=W.

22. Statement: ‘R * D’, ‘D $ J’, ‘J # M’, ‘M @ K’.
Conclusion:
A. ‘K # J’
B. ‘D @ M’
C. ‘R # M’
D. ‘d @ K’
Options:
1. None is true.
2. Only A is true.
3. Only B is true.
4. Only C is true.
5. Only D is true.
Answer: 1(Only D is true.)

R<=D, D>=J, J<M, M>K
So, R<=D>=J<M>K

A. K<J(False)
B. D>M(False)
C. R<M(False)
D. D>K(False)
So, None is true.

23. Statement: ‘H @ T’, ‘T # F’, ‘F % E’, E * V’.
Conclusion:
A.  ‘V $ F’.
B. ‘E @ T’.
C. ‘H @ V’.
D. ‘T # V’.
Options:
1. Only A, B and C are true.
2. Only A, B and D are true.
3. Only B, C and D are true.
4. Only A, C and D are true.
5. All A, B, C and D are true.

Answer: 2(Only A, B and D are true.)

H>T, T<F, F=E, E<=V.
So, H>T<F=E<=V

A. V>=F(True)
B. E>T(True)
C. H>V(False)
D. T<V(True)
So, Only 1, 2 and 4 are true.

24. Statement: ‘D # R’, ‘R * K’, ‘K @ F’, ‘F $ J’.
Conclusion:
A. ‘J # R’
B. ‘J # K’
C. ‘R# F’
D. ‘K @ D’

Options:
1. Only A, B and C are true.
2. Only B, C and D are true.
3. Only A, C and D are true.
4. All A, B, C, D are true.
5. None of above.
Answer: 5(None of above.)

D<R, R<=K, K>F, F>=j
So, D<R<=K>F>=J

A. J<R(False)
B. J<K(True)
C. R<F(False)
D. K>D(True)
So, Only 2 and 4 are true.

25. Statement: ‘M $ K’, ‘K @ N’, ‘N * R’, ‘R # W’.
Conclusion:
A. ‘W @ K’
B. ‘M $ R’
C. ‘K @ W’
D. ‘M @ N’

Options:
1. Only A and B are true.
2. Only A, B and C are true.
3. Only C and D are true.
4. Only B, C and D are true.
5. None of the above.

Answer: 5(None of the above.)

M>=K, K>N, N<=R, R<W
So, M>=K>N<=R<W

A. W>K(False)
B. M>=R(False)
C. K>W(False)
D. M>N(True)
So, Only 4 is true.
