Statement:
I & J, V * W, K % V, J @ K, L & M, K % L
Conclusion:
(a) I % W (b) L @ W (c) M $ J (d) I * V
Answer: B
Correct answer: Conclusion (c) Only
This set’s code reads \(\&\) as “not greater than”, so \(\le\); \(*\) as “not smaller than”, so \(\ge\); \(\%\) as “neither greater than nor equal”, so \(<\); \(\$\) as “neither smaller than nor equal”, so \(>\); and \(@\) as \(=\). The statements become \( I \le J \), \( V \ge W \), \( K < V \), \( J = K \), \( L \le M \) and \( K < L \).
(c) \( M > J \): J equals K, and \( K < L \le M \), so \( M > K = J \). True.
(d) \( I \ge V \): the chain gives \( I \le J = K < V \), so \( I < V \). Definitely false - the comparison can be made and comes out the other way.
(a) \( I < W \): I sits below K, and W below V, with \( K < V \) joining the two groups from below. V is a high point, so I and W are not ordered. Not determined.
(b) \( L = W \): L stands above K and W below V, and nothing pins them together. Not determined.
Only (c) follows.
