Now, in each of the following questions, assuming the given statements to be true, find which of the two conclusions I and II given below them is/are definitely true and given your answer.

Statements:     L@M,N#M,OSN Conclusions:    I. LSN         II.O@L

A)  Only conclusion II is true

B)  Both conclusion I and II are true

C)  Only conclusion I is true

D)  Neither conclusion is true

E)  Either conclusion I or II is true

Correct Answer: C

Solution :

 Given, L@ M ^ L= M ... (i) N# M =>N > M ... (ii) O N =?> L < N is true. But, we can't compare L and O. So, O @ L. is not true. Hence only conclusion I is true.
