    Direction: In the following question the symbol $, #, @ and * are used with the following meanings as illustrated below:
    'X$Y' means X is neither greater than nor equal to Y.
    'X#Y' means X is neither smaller than nor equal to Y.
    'X@Y' means X is neither smaller than nor greater than Y.
    'X%Y' means X is not smaller than Y.
    'X*Y' means X is not greater than Y.
    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:     P%Q,I$Q,P*J Conclusions:    I. P#I         II. J%Q

    A)  Only conclusion II is true

    B)  Either conclusion I or II is true

    C)  Both conclusion I and II are true

    D)  Only conclusion I is true

    E)  Neither of the conclusions is true

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     Given, \[P%Q\Rightarrow P\ge Q\]  ... (i) \[I\$Q\RightarrowI<Q\]     ... (ii) \[P*J\Rightarrow P\le J\]     ... (iii) Combining (i), (ii) and (iii), we get \[J\ge P\ge Q>I\] So, P # I\[\Rightarrow \]  P > 1 is true. J % Q \[\Rightarrow \] J > Q is true. Hence both conclusion I and II are true.
