Statements:    N > A < C, P = N, P < L

Conclusions:  I. N > C                    

                      II. L > A

  • A) if only conclusion  I follows 
  • B) if only conclusion II follows
  • C) if either conclusion I or II follows
  • D) if neither conclusions I and II follows
  • E) if both conclusions I and II follow
Solution

Ans. e) both conclusion I and II follow.

Given: N > A > C, P = N, P < L
N > A ≥ C

combining
N > C
Thus, I follows.
Combining all the given expressions,
L > P = N > A ≥ C

combining
L ≥ P > A > C

combining
L ≥ A ≥ C
thus, II follows.

Ans. e) both conclusion I and II follow.

Given: N > A > C, P = N, P < L
N > A ≥ C

combining
N > C
Thus, I follows.
Combining all the given expressions,
L > P = N > A ≥ C

combining
L ≥ P > A > C

combining
L ≥ A ≥ C
thus, II follows.
