Give answer:


1) If only conclusion I follows. 
2) If only conclusion II follows.
3) If either I or II follows. 
4) If neither conclusion I nor II follows.
5) If both conclusion I and II follows.

1) <= , > 
2) <= , < 
3) >, >= 
4) >= , > 
5) =, <=
9. If the expression N >= K, K < L, L< Q, Q = M is definitely true, which of the following would be definitely true ?

2) J < I 
3) I <= B 
4) P > J

Answers:
1.1
No bat is a book + Some books are balls = E + I = O* = Some balls are not bat Hence, I follows. But we can’t proceed further. Hence II does not follow.
2. 5
The possibility in I exists as there is no negative statement. Again, All squares are circles + All circles are ice = A +A = A = All squares are ice —> conversion
—> Some ice are squares. Hence, II follows.
3. 4
I + I = No conclusion.
4. 1
Some bananas are soups + No soups is a powder = I + E = O = Some bananas are not powder. Hence, conclusion I follows. Again, No curry is a banana + Some bananas are soups = E + I = O*= Some soups
are not curry. Hence, conclusion II do not follow.
5. 5
All balls are tables + All tables are chairs = A + A = A = All balls are chairs. Now, All balls are chairs + No chair is a room = A + E = E = No balls is a room. Hence, conclusion I follows. Again, All tables are chairs + No chair is a room = A + E = E = No table is a room. Hence, conclusion II follows.
6. 2
Given expression: R > Z = A >= C < M
R > C, Hence, option 2 is definitely true.

8. 5; Putting option 5 in question mark. We get, P= G= S ? L ? K
G ? K. Hence, option 5 is definitely true.
9. 4
