In a certain code, ‘X & Y’ means X is greater than Y; ‘X $ Y’ means X is either smaller than or equal to Y; ‘X % Y’ means X is smaller than Y; ‘X # Y’ means X is equal to Y; ‘X @ Y’ means X is either greater than or equal to Y. Statements: L & Q, Q @ P, P # N, N & M. Conclusions: I. L & M II. Q % M. Which of the conclusions is definitely true?
Correct answer C. Only conclusion I is true
Explanation
Decoding gives L > Q ≥ P = N > M. I: L > Q ≥ P = N > M gives L > M, so I is true. II: Q ≥ P = N > M gives only Q > M, so II (Q < M) does not follow.
