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 either greater than or equal to Y; ‘X @ Y’ means X is either smaller than or equal to Y; ‘X $ Y’ means X is equal to Y. Statements: O @ P, P % M, M # L, L @ Q. Conclusions: I. P % L II. L @ Q. Which of the conclusions is definitely true?

Correct answer B. Only conclusion II is true

Explanation

Decoding gives O ≤ P L ≤ Q. I: in P L the signs change direction, so P and L are not related and I fails. II: L ≤ Q gives L ≤ Q, so II is true.
