Practice mode Inequalities

In a certain code, ‘X % Y’ means X is greater than Y; ‘X # Y’ means X is smaller than Y; ‘X $ Y’ means X is equal to Y; ‘X & Y’ means X is either smaller than or equal to Y; ‘X @ Y’ means X is either greater than or equal to Y. Statements: K % C, C & H, H # B, B # M. Conclusions: I. B $ H II. H & M. Which of the conclusions is definitely true?

Correct answer D. Only conclusion II is true

Explanation

Decoding gives K > C ≤ H < B < M. I: H H, so I (B = H) does not follow. II: H < B < M gives H < M, so II is true.
