Now, im 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? Give answer

[E] if both Conclusion I and II are true.

Q.

	Statements:	F # G, N $ G, N $ T

	Conclusions:	I. T & R
			II. N * F
       	

Answer & Explanation
Option: [B]

F ≥ G ......... (i); N = G ............... (ii); N > T ............... (iii)

Combining all, we get

F ≥ G = N > T

=> N ≤ F (Conclusion II) and T < F

Hence, conclusion I (T > F) is not true but conclusion II is true.
